The theme is simply summarized in one sentence: Who is doing what in what place
When you have determined the theme, you can also determine the style you want to draw according to the theme, and then you can start to conceive your picture. Here is the knowledge about illustration elements.
For example,
The theme to be expressed is: One evening, a little girl trapped in a mysterious castle is about to escape.
After determining such a theme, you can also determine the style you want to draw. Since it is a story of planning to escape, I chose the dark style to express it.
First of all, I choose a little girl, and add the role of crow to set off the tension of the picture. The falling of crow feathers also indicates that the little girl is ready to escape. In this painting, I chose people+animals to match.
You can choose people+people, people+animals and animals+animals to reflect the role of people classification. That is, the living thing in the picture.
after the characters are determined, it is the scene. Scene refers to the content except characters in the picture, including still life and background.
The castle illuminated by the moon at night+the light reflected from the castle well reflects the tension of dark style. Then add some paintings to the foreground of the picture to fill the vacancy of the picture, and the whole picture will be perfect! Introduction of illustrations

The classical illustration design of flowers shows that when you don't see this flower, it dies with you; When you come to see this flower, you will know that the color of this flower is not in your heart. —— Wang Yangming's "Biography" Buddha said: Flowers bloom on the other side, flowers bloom on the other side, only a mass of red, flowers have no leaves, leaves have no flowers, but they can't meet each other when they miss each other. In the afterlife, there will be faith, but there will be no unbelief. The years will be long, and there will be two identical flowers in the world. Looking back for thousands of years, one flower will wither and the other will bloom. Whether it is the same flower or not is for future generations to judge. When you come into my eyes, like a flower reflected in the water, it is not a flower, the color is empty, and everything is red dust. Suddenly I feel like this unknown flower. One flower blooms, and one flower falls. All these years, no one asked. In fact, the landlord has many such poems to illustrate. What I am currently studying in the illustrator school is to write illustrations and think about them for a long time. As a result, the teacher said that they can be described in ancient poems, and I fossilized on the spot and there is an anthropomorphic illustration.

Illustrators often draw illustrations for graphic designers or directly for newspapers, magazines and other media. They are generally professional illustrators or freelance artists, and have their own themes and painting styles like photographers.

This new photography technology completely changes the creative concept of optical imaging of photography, and takes digital graphics processing as the core, which is also called "photography without darkroom".

How to write the opening report of illustration graduation design? Here is an example for your reference: Three-dimensional ink painting "Bamboo Rhyme" Opening Report Topic Description: Three-dimensional animation, also known as 3D animation, is a new technology with the development of computer software and hardware technology in recent years. Three-dimensional animation software first establishes a virtual world in the computer. Designers build models and scenes in this virtual three-dimensional world according to the shape and size of the objects to be represented, then set the motion trajectory of the model, the motion of the virtual camera and other animation parameters according to the requirements, and finally assign specific materials to the model and light it as required. When all this is done, the computer can automatically calculate and generate the final picture. At present, China's three-dimensional animation is in a new period. Three-dimensional animation originated from abroad, but what is national is the world. When it comes to China, three-dimensional animation must have its own national characteristics. The three-dimensional animation of Disney in the United States can represent the development level of three-dimensional animation, and our animation can't be compared with it, but we have to make three-dimensional animation with our own cultural characteristics to make achievements. China has just staged a large-scale three-dimensional animation "Mobius Ring", which claims to be a production group with a production cost of 15 million yuan and hundreds of people. However, the current benefits and effects are not ideal. There are certainly many factors in this result. But the most important and crucial factor has been ignored, that is, culture, which has its own culture is gone. Became a soulless body, just an empty body that looks good but can't bear to look good. Therefore, in my graduation project, I combined three-dimensional animation with traditional Chinese painting, and used three-dimensional technology to render "bamboo" into ink painting style, and then made animation. This quality, which has been endowed with indifference, lofty and integrity in China since ancient times, is the personality pursuit of many China literati. The main idea of the animation is to set bamboo in the rain and highlight the spiritual quality of bamboo through the performance with birds and flowers in the rain. Does illustration mean anything?

The ancients also thought that a book with several pictures was both beautiful and helpful for reading. The first book with illustrations, a Buddhist sutra, a diamond sutra, I forgot the full name. Speaking of this, everyone is basically clear. In a narrow sense, illustrations are inserted in books to help reading, and modern printmaking specialty is derived from illustrations.

And it is integrated into all aspects of our lives, which is ubiquitous and closely related to the lives of the general public. Today, people in the industry basically divide illustrations into several categories. (1) Commercial fashion is mainly a picture for commercial activities and advertising promotion, with strong consumption consciousness, fashion and beauty, which can make products more cultural, have more affinity with people, and provide more taste space for expanding the popularity of products. It is a popular promotion method in the tide of returning to nature. For example, the design illustrations of product packaging, the pictures of advertising posters, and so on.

There are traces of illustrations everywhere. This can be described as a big category. (3) Anime and cartoon are well known, but no one may tell you that it is also an illustration. Imagine a book with 5 words and a picture, and you can easily know that it is an illustration. If there is a picture with 5 words and a picture with every ten words, it will become a comic book. That is, this category, comic books go one step further, and the characters are small in shape.
