Zygosity vs Chorionicity
AUDIENCE
McMaster midwifery students for an e-textbook
TOOL
Illustrator CS6
GOAL
Simply depict the concept of zygosity vs chorionicity. Make a line illustration that is clear, concise and simple.
THOUGHT PROCESS​
For this illustration, the relationship between the chorion and amnion is key. I chose to colour code these structures to make them clearly distinct. Using strategies such as minimizing and recycling assets, I was able to quickly deliver this illustration.
It was important to have a consistent style for the book.
To do so, I studied past illustrations and made sure to closely follow the established visual style sheet.
