Talk about it!
As promised, here is our final post about how best to present our book.
If you are in primary school then that means you will have already recieved your cover and plasic wallets. All you have to do is put the coloured and white pages back to back and slot them into the wallets in the right order.
It will go like this:
Inside fount cover v white page verse one
Coloured verse 2 v white page
Coloured verse 3 v white page
Coloured verse 4 v white page
Coloured verse 5 v white page
Back page credits v Inside back cover
- A white page should always be back to back with a colour page, so follow the zig zag motion.
I hope that’s ok and that you understand it and are not too confused.
Fount Cover
I think it’s ok to leave the frount cover blank, as it is so colourful, and it makes the pictures and lovely detail inside the book more of a surprise.
Showing of your 3D artwork
If you chose to make your coloured pages 3D, then you might want to show that off, so that people don’t have to take the page out of it’s plastic wallet to touch and feel the raised texture.
- If you want to show your 3D artwork off then you will need to mark out a square on your plastic wallet.
- Imagine you were drawing a border around the edge of the wallet and then cut out the middle.
- This is a bit tricky so you will probably need a grown up to help.
- Keep the middle of the wallet with your other craft materials as scrap bits like this are useful for all sorts of things, including drawing on.
- You should be left with a plastic frame that will hold your work in place, but let people see and touch the raised bit of your drawing.
Well done!
