Working towards a landscape children's book format: 25cmx20cm - not sure if this is the best size, I need to look at some existing examples of children's books and see what I like best! I think I'd prefer really oversized since the photos will be so detailed. But landscape suits the content
The surface I have for the set isn't big enough to fit all of the buildings on spaced out in this way, so I have been arranging them in two sets (these four buildings and then clearing them off and setting up the next three). This isn't practical as I'm having to change the set every time, things then fall off or are placed slightly differently to how I had them the first time.
This landscape photo of the first four buildings is too long anyway. I wouldn't be able to show the whole street in one double page spread, only four and then three... to solve this problem I think I will reduce the spacing between buildings (pushing closer together) and bring the 'bushes' (greenery) higher so they actually look like they are hiding the town from human view.
The brambles look randomly placed or even plonked so I will change that to make them look as if they're actually growing from plants, dangling from leaves etc.
I need to purchase some more lighting if I want all of the buildings to be lit at the same time! Different levels/qualities of light?
