In yesterday's progress surgery Fred identified some things in my work that I, myself did not even realise I was doing which has made me really reconsider the composition with some of the pages that I've not yet digitised. With the image below, Fred mentioned that the people behind her might not really be necessary, that it might not really serve a purpose - if the people are there to show that she is on the bus then they are not really needed for this piece to work because the text already says 'On the bus':
So with the pages below, I started asking myself if the people here are really necessary. Do they clarify my idea? Do they distract or confuse?
I decided to discard the people, and replace them instead with more speech bubbles to emphasise how the monster would make the girl feel vulnerable:
Fred also mentioned that even though they are different images, some of my pages interact and flow onto the next page which makes it work because it helps to control the eye's flow through its layout - makes it appear balanced and I guess, more visually appealing:
I took this into consideration and altered some of my pages slightly so that it flows and interacts with its neighbour - also to make it look more balanced as a double page spread:
