August 3rd Thursday Notes
-
I was thinking the movie because most people aren't as familiar with the book.
-
Sorry another question for you @Lee-White - are we allowed to draw inspiration from the descriptions of characters in the original book, the ones that are also in the movie? I've started researching and thought it might be good to read the descriptions, to imagine a fresh take that's not too inspired by the film characters. I thought that would be okay but now I'm wondering.

I have a Pinterest board that has had plenty of Wizard of Oz illustrations with various styles & interpretations collected into it, but I just added several more this morning. Not all fit within the parameters of this project, but perhaps they might spark some ideas. So, I thought I’d share!

@QuietYell good stuff thanks

great thanks for that very helpful
-
@thuraya You are very welcome!
-
Do you have to have a theme or can you just re-design the characters the way you would if they were your own? Just following the story.

@Lee-White Just read your feedback to Joy... you were thinking movie, but I have been working up ideas based on "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz". I found there to be more in the way of storytelling with L. Frank Baum's story.
