Remember - Benjamin Zhang Bin


Benjamin Zhang Bin - 
About a week or so ago I bought 'Remember' by Benjamin on a whim. I wasn't too sure what it was about, but immediately was captured by the beautiful illustrations the book contained. The story isn't the most memorable, but the use of colours and framing immediately captures a mood, and the strange luminosity of the pictures is quite impacting.


Though not a storyboard, I find this quite relevant to what I have been doing, as the frames manage to capture a moment and movement(through the streaks of colour and brush strokes etc). The compositions are quite striking too and seem quite cinematographic, and are the type of illustrations I should perhaps be attempting, since the quality is so high.
