With the time limit I'd Given myself I wanted to stick to a simple colour scheme that could be repeated throughout the other four illustrations. I chose simple black and white but with a spot colour of gold. Allowing for the sense of olden time luxury and the metallic highlight both stood out and blended in with the illustration.
Pros:
- Created at least 3 well crafted and illustrated editorial pieces
- Using spot colour allows for a good sense of dramatism
- The technique really suited he tudor pieces.
- There are some that have a strong sense of competition
- I can create editorial work with a fast turn around time.
Cons:
- Some images (opera) where too convoluted
- sometimes less is more
- Using a spot colour consistently would have helped some of the pieces in creating a focus for it. Not just in it's composition.
- Sometimes just taking a step back and looking at the work you're doing + getting another person's feedback can be vital to the direction of a piece.
