创作故事插图
本项目是与意大利语教师合作开展的，面向七年级班级。我们通过创作带插图的故事参与了一项竞赛。该竞赛为意大利全国性赛事“课堂作家”（Scrittori di Classe），面向全意小学及初中学校。
在简要讲授图书插图及其创作方法之后，我们探讨了视觉图像与文字叙事相结合所具有的表现力，并思考如何使画面直观、易懂且富有感染力。最终我们选定混合媒介形式：先以丙烯水彩绘制明亮、闪亮的背景；人物则用彩铅在白纸上绘制，再剪下粘贴至 painted 背景之上；为完善画面，我们用彩铅添加细节与层次变化；最后，还粘贴了一些从杂志上剪下的图片元素。
Illustrate a story
From a project in collaboration with the Italian teacher, with a 7th grade class, we attended a competition, by creating a story with the illustrations. This is the Italian competition “Writers in Class”(Scrittori di Classe), targeted at Primary and Middle Schools throughout Italy.
After a short lesson on the illustrations in the books and their creation, we talked about the narrative power of the visual message combined with a story, and we thought about how to make it immediate, understandable and effective. We opted for an image in mixed media, preparing a background painted in acrylic tempera, with bright colors and shiny. The figures are drawn on white paper with colored pencils, cut out and pasted on the painted background. To complete the scene, we designed details and nuances with colored pencils, and finally we pasted some pictures cut out from magazines.
