•Making rough sketches of a story.
•The sketches are not my final idea this was just to give me and idea that will be on each page. By doing this I can add and remove pages to create a successful story.
The main elements that I have learnt from a fox life are:-
• scavengers
• survivors
• pests (making a mess)
• looking for food in every kind of weather
• the risk of been harmed in traffic
• being confidant around urban places
• confronted by people
• aggressive
• timid
• travel miles in a short space of time
I wanted to have all these things with in my rough. I need to show al these things. I feel I have but maybe not in the right order.
• cover!. Fox in his hole, having a stretch
• page 1. Looking out on to the urban
• page 2. Fox roaming the streets
• page 3 looking at bins for food
• page 4 fox emptying bins
• page 5 birds eye view of the mess he's made
• page 6 fox running through traffic
• page 7 fox sat in worse weather
• page 8 fox finding entering a park
• page 9 fox finding old kebab and drinks ( to insinuate the time of the night and drunk people)
• page 10 getting chaiced by people
• page 11 hiding from the man
• page 12 scared and hungry
• page 13 startled by another pertential chaise
• page 14 standing the ground
• page 15 standing his ground
• page 16 makes man run off
• page 17 rooting for food
• page 18 lost hope for food (sad expression, rubbish weather)
• page 19 finds pizza (looking from behind the fox head)
•wanted a little twist at the end like this to just show that fox's are just surviving
• the text in my pictures will not be there I added the text as notes to what I want the expression of the characters to say. I'm still not 100% sure if I want this book to be a serious, child or mature book! after drawing these roughs I feel im pushed towards the idea of making a childrens book.
• next I will experiment with layout and perspective for each page, I will also be experimenting with media that will help me choose a style and media for the books illustration.
