After already producing several pages for my children’s book I realised that keeping the aesthetic consistent could be difficult; especially if the two opposite pages were drastically different in colour tones. I have been developing pages as I go along, but I have realised that by creating them in double page spreads (even if the pages are two separate ones and not a continuous design) it will allow the aesthetic to flow and hopefully create a more professional outcome.
By having it in this style I think that it will be more engaging for the child audience as their eyes would flick across both pages while reading the story. In order for this to be successful I will make sure that the narrative is interesting and rhymes for the two adjoining pages, as well as making the illustrations as interesting as possible so that they want to look at them. This could be done by including detail, colour, or simple juxtapositions so that it follows the conventions of a children’s book while having its own style that is distinctive and appropriate for the duality of audiences.
