In this module we will be collaborating with the photography students to create two super hero and villain inspired graphic posters. This is a great opportunity to explore new mediums, which I haven’t done a lot of in my other modules. Collaborations happen often within the industry, especially as I currently want to specialise in Editorial, so it is a good learning experience for me.
In my sketchbook I need to experiment with illustration styles, typography, and mixed media. I feel the best way to do this is to look into other artists and what they use, and imitate whilst trying to adapt my own style.
Initially I was skeptical about this module, but having been educated by my boyfriend on the world of comic books, I feel more confident. I want to experiment more in depth, especially by hand as I feel this is a skill I need to develop.
