很開心終於能和孩子們分享這次的新作品!
回想從第一本至第三本的繪製過程,就像圖像語言的深度探索,每冊讀本都有不同繪圖節奏和構圖邏輯,而每張構圖都要搭配文字傳達的狀態,來安排敘事重心與畫面焦點,不論劇情節奏快慢、角色心理轉折,或空間壓力的氛圍宣染,畫面都必須準確服務好故事。 因此比起作為繪者,更需要讓自己傾向作為導演,思考如何將手中這套劇本,筆下這些演員,在每場戲的分鏡構圖、角色站位、表情變化、光影配色、氛圍塑造,都能精準與文字呼應;這使得整個插畫流程,從最初角色設計、草稿構圖、線稿調整,到上色階段,都需動輒數月時間反覆琢磨調整。 一路堅持下來,很慶幸自己的微薄之力,讓貓熊007對峙野狼先生時更加刺激;讓珠奶奶、沙沙、亞亞的新品研發更加精采;讓白小姐和黑小姐的面試過程更加感動;讓網虹的自我探索更加亮眼;讓狐米的職人道路更加勵志;讓三隻小猴的棒球經歷更加深刻。穿梭在書中各個角落的波寶們,也低調扮演好稱職路人角色,溫柔的和這部作品多一份可愛的連結。 真心榮幸能參與其中,透過筆下畫面,陪伴每位角色走過他們的日常挑戰,而不同主題所圍繞的共同理念:「探索自我的一技之長,與世界產生新的連結」,也期待小讀者們能藉由我們用心打造的圖文作品,從中探索專屬於自己的天賦與熱情。 I'm truly delighted to finally share this new project with the kids! Looking back on the illustration journey from the first to the third book, it felt like a deep dive into the language of images. Each volume had its own drawing rhythm and compositional logic. Every illustration needed to align with the emotional tone of the text—whether it was a fast-paced plot, a character’s psychological shift, or the atmospheric tension of a scene, the visuals had to faithfully serve the story. So rather than simply being an illustrator, I found myself stepping into the role of a director—thinking about how to bring this script to life with the cast under my pen. Every scene required careful planning: from storyboarding, character placement, and expression shifts to lighting, color palettes, and mood creation, all in precise dialogue with the text. The entire process—from character design, rough sketches, line work refinement, to final coloring—often took months of back-and-forth fine-tuning. With continued effort, I'm grateful that I was able to make Panda 007’s showdown with Mr. Wolf even more intense; Grandma Pearl, Sasha, and Yaya’s product development more exciting; Miss White and Miss Black’s interview more moving; Rainbow’s journey of self-discovery more radiant; Humi’s professional path more inspiring; and the three little monkeys’ baseball experience more profound. Scattered throughout the corners of the book, the POPO also quietly played the role of dedicated background characters, adding a gentle touch of charm to the story’s world. I feel truly honored to be part of this project. Through each scene I illustrated, I was able to walk alongside every character as they faced their daily challenges. Across all the different themes, one core idea remained: “discovering your own unique skill, and forming new connections with the world.” I hope our young readers can feel the heart behind these stories and illustrations, and be inspired to explore their own talents and passions through this journey. |
