maps
below are two maps which were made by myself for the leaflet. the first one is a zoomed in section of the elgar route. i wanted this map to be different and stand out from the big map as it was going to be a smaller size in the leaflet so needed it to be legible and clear. the second map below is a map of the whole elgar route, as this one was going to be A3 size i had more freedom when it came to detail in the map. also as the bigger map was the one going to be used for navigation it had to be correct when it came to locations of towns and villages and routes the roads took. i am very happy with the outcome of these maps as it was something i had never tackled before.

Current Historic Trail Leaflets: All of the leaflets are well designed and fit the style a historic trail would present but they all look the same, they all have the same colours, similar layouts and similar fonts used. I want to try and design something which still fits in with the historic trail persona but is a more visually stimulating and stands out over these boring leaflets. I want to try and bring more photography into the leaflet as i feel the trail in which the leaflet is for is such a beautiful place that no illustration could really do it justice. For this i will walk some of the trail myself and take photos as i do, these photos i will then edit and include in the leaflet. Also using photographs brings a sense of maturity which i think this trail needs, i wouldn't want to try and illustrate the leaflet and end up with it damaging the character in which a historic trail has. Below are inspirations i have found from other leaflets...
