Dys-lex-i-a
My audience includes both adults and children, aiming to educate them about the experience of being dyslexic. I selected the poem 'Dis-lex-e-ah' by Hayley and created a storyboard, which I then used to illustrate a comic book depicting what it's like to live with dyslexia.
First Draft

Here, I determine how many panels I should make. I was also figuring out what the key point of the poem was.

In this section, I'm planning out the best way to view the illustration.
Artboard
At this point, I wanted to play with the artboards to see what made sense.
adobe Photoshop
I used Adobe PhotoShop to illustrate what I imagined the poem would look like.

For the final sketch, I went back to see if I could add more panels

Final design
After receiving feed fwd from my peers, I was able to incorporate some ideas for the last revision. For example, watching an Indian film called Taare Zameen Par was a great idea to show how to communicate with others about dyslexia. Other feedback like emotion for charter, and camera angles. Point of view of the charter and grid adjuster. Helped illustrate and educate what it's like to be dyslexic.
