Heres some pages from a short book i made for a uni project last year
The book was about film noir...the images are taken from classic and modern films
that fit the noir genre. The text is taken from various sources and details the themes
and stylistic elements of the genre


I hand inked the pages to achieve a more unique look
the book was made without the use of a computer. I prefer the less polished look
that i got


In the assessment i was marked down for the font i had used and the way the text is presented. I think this is a fair judgement, i was working to a deadline and felt that the images were more important and i spent most of my time producing them. 
With the text the idea was to use a font that resembled hand writing and contain it in comic book style boxes so that it was not lost in the images. 
Overall i was pleased with how the book came out and perhaps sometime in the future i will be able to re-visit the text and produce a final version of the book.
