OUIL403 A Day in the Life Initial Ideas/ Development



I really enjoyed responding to the article to make the scamps for this. Once I had the idea for the mask symbol I found it a lot easier to design ideas around it. I wanted the scamps to not only compliment the article but to tell the story of the changing culture of the internet and the begin of an era of accountability. 

I found that using colour almost immediately when you start formatting your scamps really helps navigate the way you approach a piece. It changes the way the image is read which made me more aware of the way I was composing the image. 


I'll be looking into using gouache as my primary media for this piece as block colours are good for conveying a message and with the simplistic way I want to draw the images it allows the block colour to be used as a tool of enhancement not embellishment


 However after seeing Yabb Kebbi's pencil work ( Here on PPP blog)  I'll be experimenting with both mediums to see which would be the better one.
