The extended essay that I read was about how editorial
illustration is affected by how people view images, as well as how
practitioners constantly have to learn new skills to be able to keep up with the
advanced technology to make their work suitable for the modern viewer, such as
moving image that can be used on digital articles. The tone of voice is more
personal than academic throughout the essay which I think makes it a lot easier
to understand. Different practitioners are mentioned throughout the essay with
explanations on how their work creates an impact as well as how they keep their
work up to date by using more modern methods of work such as Adobe Photoshop
brushes, which still keeps aspects of a traditional approach. Multiple texts
are mention in the introduction and then later clarified further in the second
chapter where the texts are triangulated. There is a section of ‘known
knowledge’ which proves that Billie was well aware of the topic before doing further
research which has allowed her to use paraphrasing in this section. A number of
different texts have been used to produce a strong argument which have all been
included in the bibliography. The quality of research is quite high as the
sources have come from different places including the internet, articles, books
and various other sources. Imagery has been included at the end of the essay
including a piece of her own work from her reflective practice which was an
editorial based piece created in response to the extended essay.
