When I started to think about what I wanted to do for my book I really struggled. I couldn’t really think of a particular topic or a theme for my book. I know that I am a simple person and I wanted to do a book that really explained itself. I am not a very strong writer or drawer so I am a little caution of the book project. During the class lecture in which book project examples where shared I enjoyed the books that had minimal text and the simple use of pictures for the story.
I would like to create a book that is simple where the pictures explain the story. I plan on making a child’s book. I am very open to story and layout ideas. I will be using photos from the Internet to make the book.
I do have an idea for a book with a bouncy ball because I really enjoy bouncy balls. I want to make it really colorful and fun for young kids with big pictures. I am thinking maybe depicting the journey a bouncy ball takes all over the city, similar to the movie “Babies Day Out”. The baby takes an adventure all over the city. Maybe a kid will throw the bouncy ball and it will just bounce all over the city ending up back at home at the end of the story.
I am still working on an outline for the story with picture ideas. I often don’t really outline something but just work on it and ideas just kind of flow. I really enjoy that part of creating pieces using Photoshop.
