Instruction




Task 2

Content Generating:

I have to write a short story of at least 3,000 words or come up with a 3,000-word topic on a subject we already know well. Each of the story's three chapters must have at least one pull quote and two subtexts. I'd want to go with the story of the movie I just saw, "Life of PI." This is due to the reason I miss the story and full of inspiration in the plot.

Week 4 
General Feedback: 
~When it comes to stage in layout,  thinking about the layout and the positioning right now this will influence in a bad way. Avoid the laying out, can play with the illustrations and visuals and not create that supposed to be I've got two colors. It is interesting, I'm on the right track in terms of being very abstract and experimental with my strokes and really cool. When I utilize the more intense it gets and how I utilize both over here is actually quite nice. There's a slight difference in the style. It show how I reconcile.

Week 5 
General Feedback: 
~Choose a suitable font. Consistence the stroke.



Reflection

Experience: Finding my own design book has been a lot of work overall because I've had to look around for so much inspiration. I also have to maintain the style to make all pages consistency.

Observation: I need to pay more attention to all my mistakes that should not be made.

Finding : I'm going to be more careful to reduce the mistakes I made.

Indie Publishing : How to Design and Produce Your Own Book (2008)

Indie Publishing's special focus on the visual design of books makes it unique among publish it manuals. We are taken step-by-step through the process of designing a book. Design principles such as scale, cropping, pacing, and typography are explored.

Figure 4.0 Book that showed 

In page 81 to 83 talk about a very interesting images book design for kids. The book is called "What do you look like when ONLY your bones are showing? "designed, and illustrated by April Osmanof. 

Figure 4.1 The image design for kids


Kids aged 4 to 7 are the target audience for this independent book. Hand-cut sticky contact paper is used to create the graphics. The designer will use techniques like extreme close-ups and wide shots to give your book a cinematic feel. Besides, I agreed with that the book writer said we need to use white space to give readers a chance to breathe.
