6 Step Pamphlet:
how to kill a spider
The primary objective of this assignment was to create an 8 page brochure which illustrated a 6 step program in a topic of my choice. I chose to illustrate how to kill a spider. The medium lent itself to me, in that it was fairly simple to come up with 6 steps. I chose to illustrate the brochure in an almost storybook-like, mock-collage manner in order to emphasize the simplicity of the steps ahead. After coming up with sketches for the individual pages, I wrote a short caption to clarify each illustration’s directions. Then it was just a matter of putting it all together in an easy to understand format.
Sketches
I tried to maintain a consistent theme of paper cut out aesthetic. seen in my hand-drawn typography texturing of my graphics, implementing drop shadows and textures taken from crumpled up paper to give them a realistic feel.I wanted to make the pamphlet feel like it was made with the raw materials it would be made out of.
