Description

Once the sequence of images has been agreed on by the group, they should be laid down on the table/floor in sequence. Explain the activity: The group has to piece together a story from the set of the images that is handed out. Each participant is given an image but is not permitted to show it to anyone else. Without looking at each other’s images, the group must put the images in sequence. Hand out one image to each participant. Encourage them to study the details of the image so this will help them put together the full story. For books that use a similar ‘zooming’ technique, see both the wordless picturebook Looking Down by Steve Jenkins and Powers of Ten, not a children’s picturebook but a wordless flipbook based on the 1968 film of the same name by Charles and Ray Eames. Zoom spread

This ‘zooming out’ technique is beautifully sustained in Zoom and the transition from picture to picture is smooth and elegant, with plenty of clues to suggest the next switch of scale – for example a giant hand appearing at the edge of a piece of paper, or the outline of a bus window creeping into the top of a frame. As the book progresses the reader is drawn through a series of complex images, including from a toy farm to a magazine front cover; from a cruise ship advertisement to a TV image; from an Arizona postage stamp to a beach in Solomon Island, Australia; to a plane flying over to the island to the wider ocean; and finally from a swirl of blue and white as the earth appears a spherical ball in space to a tiny dot in the universe.

This is a great activity that allows teams to display communication and problem-solving skills. The activity becomes more complex with a large number of participants as there are more pieces of the story-puzzle that they have to put into sequence. It also works well with smaller groups if you use the variations provided below. Alternatively, you can create your own set of sequential images that tell a story. Each image should be on one sheet of paper (you can laminate them so that they last more than one session). The number of images should match the number of participants.STEP Design 100 Annual 2007: Editorial". 16 July 2011. Archived from the original on 15 April 2012 . Retrieved 27 June 2014. In 1995, Banyai produced his first wordless children's book, Zoom. [1] Honored as one of the best children's books of the year by The New York Times and Publishers Weekly, Zoom was soon published in 18 languages. [ citation needed] He went on to author four more books and illustrate many more in collaboration with other writers and poets. "It's refreshing to encounter a group of virtually wordless books that invite children to consider their world from a point of view they may not have otherwise considered. The most stunning is Zoom, written—or, rather, imagined and then illustrated—by Istvan Banyai." [2]

Banyai has also produced a number of other wordless books beside Zoom, including Re-Zoom (1998) and The Other Side (2005), as well as some animated films. In addition he regularly contributes work to many newspapers and periodicals such as The New Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Time and The New Yorker. Zoom spread Istvan Banyai (27 February 1949 – 15 December 2022) was a Hungarian illustrator and animator. He was born in suburban Budapest and received his BFA from Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design. [1] He moved to France in 1973, then to the United States in 1981. [1]Zoom by Istvan Banyai is a wordless picturebook that is a series of pictures that start very close-up and then zoom out. The first picture starts with an up close red object, which we find out is a rooster on the next picture. It then zooms out to two children looking at the rooster and then the house and town they are in. We then find out that this town is actually a model that a girl is playing with on a magazine cover. This pattern continues for the rest of book playing on the idea. Typically, you may notice that one or more participants will step up and assume a leadership role to help guide the group.
