For my final major project this year we can do anything of our choosing but it had to get approved by the tutors. I eventually decided upon making a book retelling the Rwandan Genocide. I chose this because it was an event that I knew nothing about and only came across from looking at historical events I could make my project about. I wanted to make something that could hopefully tell more people my age about what happened. It was a terrible time and there were victims on all sides. 

It is a real mix of media and colour. After doing the original artworks I scanned in the pictures and changed the vibrancy on Photoshop where I also added the text. After printing the pages I cut them and hand bound the book. It is a hardback book, the cover has a hand drawn title and small drawing on the start/end pages. Let know what you think in the comments below. I made some spelling mistakes which is a shame but that was probably because of how the text was the last thing that I did.
