What you see here, are the various title pages for a proposal I've started working on. A proposal for what you say? Well that is a very good question! Truth is, this was originally something I started looking into with regards to contacting some of the major comic publishers. We've come to the conclusion as a group that the most viable options in the industry would have to be Image Comics, Dark Horse, or IDW Publishing. So this proposal is intended to accompany the sequential pages that we'll be sending in. After going over the layout of the proposal, and looking at these pages, I'm figuring that this is something that can be used for many little side projects.
If put together properly, we can use this structure to showcase the work that we can accomplish as a studio team. The goal is obviously to appear as professional as possible, while still maintaining the level of creative expertise that makes our team unique. This mindset is partially what has brought me to focus on the above mentioned comic publishers.
I hope to get five pages of the next issue completed (in colour), to include in the proposal. As it stands right now, I am without a cover design (I don't know if that count's for the 5 pages...), I've got the first page coloured. Second page drawn, and the first panel of the third page almost drawn. whew. It's an exciting process putting this book together as it is a different development than the previous two. I'm working more with Chris Walker for the writing and story development of the book, we're looking into a ton of printing options, and I've started drawing everything digitally (The first two page were the last to be drawn on paper). So it feels like a good positive, constructive motion that we are committed to as a studio.
So that's where I'm at right now. Where we're at. Where are you? Have you any thoughts, suggestions, comments? We'd love to here from you, drop us a line, or check out any of our supporting sites. Also, if you're not signed up for the Network Email already, now would be a great time to do it. Send me an email with your email information, and we'll put you onto the list. It's a great way to keep informed on how the studio is progressing, and find ways that YOU can help. We send it out once every three months, and the next is coming in March. This month I'll be including the first page of the next book! Members of the Network will be the first to see this awesome page, I hope you're one of them.
