Narrative and Sequence

STORY: What is your story?
Describe in:

  • Three words: fishermen, Footsteps, journey
  • A sentence: I plan to tell a story throughout the harbour on fishing and a fishermen’s footsteps, on how we get our fish.
  • A paragraph: I took a very long time to decide until I realised I liked a lot of my portraits and found some images correlated well with each other, My zine will tell the story through the book of fishermen, and how there is lots of jobs to do to the boat before evening heading to the sea, it will clearly show the things you have to do on land until you enter the sea, it will then show things that fishermen collect from the sea and how they collect them, what they use. Of course the story will still be subjective and I hope everyone can find their own story within it but the clear main story is of a fishermen life, which helped as we met Captain Brain who comes into my story a bit, nothing is clearly said but I hope my images and the order it is done is clearly shown.

NARRATIVE: How will you tell your story?

I plan to tell my story by carefully ordering the images throughout my zine book, there will be portraits and full bleed images to especially show the importance and main idea of every image and to hopefully highlight what story I am trying to tell.

I will have my own produced images . At the beginning of my zine, I will have an introduction of St Helier harbour. throughout my entire zine pages will be landscapes of St Helier harbour or portraits, I also plan to have black footprints walking through all the pages.

I plan to have my font-types a friendly playful tone as it isn’t in the book much but think it works well with the image I have thought for my front cover so they will compliment each other. The cover of my zine will be one large portrait that is in colour and edited to be a bit of a warmer tone, the title will be right above the man in the photo and my name will be in the right hand bottom corner, in black so it all stands out.

Mood board of images I will use:

Text I will add in my zine

As it is all to do with fishing and fishermen and their story I will have a small introduction in the beginning that is presented in sea shanty form.
