Responsive - Group Feedback Session

Briefs selected
  • YCN - Roald Dahl - illustrate scenes containing one creature, one villain, one child from Roald Dahl's stories
  • Secret7" - illustrating record covers for a set group of songs
  • Illustration Friday - weekly small illustration challenge

Is the rationale sound?
  • Could start Roald Dahl now and continue it throughout the year until the Secret7" songs are released in the first week of January - two substantial briefs but spread apart so it shouldn't be too much to do
  • Freedom to be weird and funny with Roald Dahl, don't get anything like that with the AD&D briefs I've been looking at
  • Stay away from iconic Quentin Blake look - working for a new audience
What technical considerations are there?
  • Consider audience for each - eg. children and young people for Roald Dahl
  • Consistent media, have to start considering how work works as part of a set
  • When using branding and logo take time to consider the brands identity
What time considerations are there?
  • Secret7" isn't released until the first week of January - I'm aiming to do this in addition to the YCN brief so I have to be ready and ahead with that before the songs come out so I have time to consolidate ideas and produce work I'm happy with for both briefs
Is the balance of briefs appropriate?
  • Should be enough if I also keep up with Illustration Friday every week, that will build up quite a lot of smaller works to go alongside the bigger briefs of YCN and Secret7"
