Images and text in sequence- Tiffany Leeson

During the talk that I attended to, Tiffany discussed her career as a creative director of Egmont publishing. She mentioned of what to consider when creating a narrative sequence. The main points to think about when planning out a story are;

• characters- main core of the story 
• pace- read an image
• page layout/ number of pages/ connecting pages together 
• Where do you want your reader to look?
• what colours and textures to consider when creating the moodiness of the characters/ will it also include silhouettes/ shadows when someone/thing is approaching 
• format of the images- 32pp- 12 spreads-
• rule of structure- 3/6/3- for younger audience have the page lay out a square format 
• viewpoint- what is going on in the story 
• target audience- adult/ children/ young adult/ teens  

The order of producing a storyboard are; 

1. setting 
2. characters 
3.  problem develops 
4. conflict begins 
5. escalates 
6. crisis
7. resolution 
8. following actions- put yourself in other people shoes

Other things  to consider when after producing a book are getting the sense of the target market- language distance/ visiting book shops, researching bloggers and retail buyers.
