Creating the book for 'Finding Moe'

Creating the book for 'Finding Moe'

Recently I decided to try and create my book physically. Because this would be a rough idea presentation wise, I wanted to stick to paper. However, upon trying this, I ran into many problems.

Somehow I forgot the way a book works. I forgot about having the middle page etc so when I stuck the pages on the back of each other, the order was entirely wrong. This was very frustrating and I spent quite a lot of money on producing two copies of each page (in case). In the process I used both of these pages.

I also forgot to flip the front cover as it is the wrong way. This also caused me to run into a problem.

Here is what I was left with:

After this, I decided to create concept ideas of what the book would look like when produced professionally. I did this through Procreate and overlayed the pages on top of an already designed plain white book. I then altred the layers to multiply so it looked more realistic.

The only issue with producing the book this way is if I lost marks due to it not being created physically. However, this will be something I will discuss during a tutorial and I will go from there.

Due to how costly the printing has been I am unsure I want to make it physically again. However, this is something I will have to approach if needed.

Here is my finished book:
