This subject explores the conceptual, stylistic and format design of illustration for, and as narrative. Students work on a number of projects that encourage them to consider the design of different narrative forms, illustrative techniques and styles in relation to content, target audience, client, context and genre.

This unit explores the diverse range of illustrative styles and techniques that are used in contemporary advertising and editorial illustration. Students will work through professional concepts and developmental processes that include understanding the “design brief”, target audience and client needs, media considerations, style and layout, costing and deadlines.
