Want to create book illustrations but don’t know where to start? Not sure how to turn text into an image, build scenes and make the story read naturally? This course gives you exactly what’s missing — the ability to think like an illustrator. We will take Little Red Riding Hood — a familiar story that lets you focus on visual decisions rather than coming up with a plot. Three modules. A concrete result. No fluff.
In the first module you will break down the structure of a book and understand how text becomes a spread. You will create two characters — Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf — and learn to convey personality through silhouette, proportions and expressions. In the second module you will build the visual sequence of the story, draw a storyboard of 6 scenes with alternating shots and rhythms, and select a tonal and color solution. In the third module you will bring the illustration to its final result: composition, environment, volume, detailing — and assemble everything into a complete project.
