Children's Book, Vector type help Options

[Datrooper]

Ok, well first off, I'll explain the project that needs to be done. I have to create a children's book, and then translate it to a foreign language, i'm going to be using spanish since i speak spanish as a second lang. Well, i've decided that my book is going to be about a tomato who is upset because he doesn't fit in, and is made fun of by his other vegtable friends for being different and abnormally shaped. Now, if it's a children's book, i should do vectors right? And then, what should i use for drawing the vectors? I have almost all of cs3, so that's not a problem. I'm fairly new to vectoring, are there any tutorials that will help me with shading and such? I hope that was understandable Thanks in advance!

Can you draw? Do you know how to work the pen tool (which I am assuming will be in Photoshop/Illustrator since you mentioned CS3)?



You need story boards. Those will definitely help you out. What I would do is sketch out (if you draw and even then just shapes to represent what you want will help) the story. Figure out what will go on what page along with the text of the story. Once you have this figured out, then I would worry about learning the vectoring ish that you'll need.
