Experienced Children’s Book Writer Seeks Professionally Faded Illustration Design Through BackOffice Pro
The Client- An Independent Writer & Experience Children’s Book Publisher
Specializing in child psychology, the client is an established writer and publisher that has created several children’s books. Believing that writing for young minds is lot more challenging than writing and designing book illustrations for aged readers, special attention is paid in understanding the content of each book, and developing an approach for children to make the stories interesting yet informative.
By using this approach and utilizing several decades of experience, the client has become a successful expert in their chosen field.
Children Book Illustration Requirements for This Project
The client approached the team at BackOffice Pro (BOP) with a project involving illustrations for a new children’s fantasy story book. We were required to produce sixty illustrations based on twelve of the characters present in the story.
The client specifically needed these illustrations to have a Chinese style and we were also instructed to change certain colour tones to make each image look more faded.
Challenges Faced By Our Team During This Project
When our team took on this project, the main challenges we faced were due to the detail the client needed for each image. At first we struggled with ascertaining exactly how faded each image needed to be, and what type of fading would be appropriate; be it antique fading or simply lowering the color intensity and detail.
To deal with this difficulty we presented our suggestions to the client who helpfully communicated a more specific description. Thereafter, we were able to move forward unhindered.
Our Detailed Book Illustration Process
To ensure that the client received exactly what was needed, our team at BackOffice Pro utilized years of designing expertise coupled with top-of-the-range designing software to deliver a quality image output.
- After the initial meeting with the client, our team started on a trial period which involved the completion of one illustration within eighteen hours (using one resource).
- We then moved onto the main project, which had a timeline of three months and an allocation of two resources.
- We started by creating a basic sketch of each character and then added in the any needed colouring.
- These sketches were then uploaded onto Adobe Illustrator, where we added the final touches.
- Once completed, these illustrations were then sent through the client for a quality check and our team touched up on anything that needed to be changed.
