Note for US members: date above is in EU format (dd/mm/yy) as is time. Webinar is on April 7 and starts at 2:30 pm NYC time.
with Laurent Linn, Art Director Simon & Schuster
As readers get older, the way they interpret stories through words and art changes. The purpose of illustrations in creating characters and worlds can vary dramatically between age groups and book formats, even though some aspects remain the same. In this webinar we’ll be exploring this in detail and discuss how to approach each format in new ways.
Registration limited to 15 attendees to keep the intimate, friendly atmosphere we are so pleased to offer you at the Europolitan.
