Chicken Dance Book done as a project in my Introduction to Book Arts course.

The goal of this project was to create a one folio, black and white, simple structure digital book. The book could have a conceptual appeal or a content appeal. It could also be text based, image based or a combination of the two.

Inspired by my niece and nephews, the subject matter of my book became ‘The Chicken Dance,’ a popular party dance. Each page of the book shows the song lyrics, the steps that go along with the lyrics and imagery to illustrate the steps.
