ART DIRECTION
Interpret the supplied brief in Comic Book style.
Visual vocabulary: bold black ink outlines with varied line weight; four-colour halftone dot shading; a dramatic figure or object in dynamic foreshortened action; starburst and jagged burst shapes; motion lines; caption boxes with drop shadows; slight newsprint grain and printing misregistration.
Lettering direction: masthead-style display capitals with outline and drop shadow for the headline; hand-lettered comic caps in caption boxes for details; no speech bubbles containing invented dialogue.
Suggested colors: primary red, blue, and yellow on off-white newsprint with black ink; secondary green and orange.
Composition: cover layout with the headline masthead across the top, action scene filling the middle, and details in caption boxes or a corner badge.
Atmosphere: energetic, heroic, nostalgic, fun.
Keep out of the design: real superhero characters or logos, invented dialogue, manga or anime styling, painterly rendering, muted palettes.
Apply the visual language to the supplied brief; do not invent historical affiliations, endorsements, or extra copy.
