A
first time author came to me with the manuscript. I
worked closely with him illustrating the 7 main characters
the way he imagined them. Usually I stay on budget,
but this was a rare project where the schedule was thrown
out the window. During an intense year, I pumped more
New York City skyscrapers and crowds into the 36 illustrations
than would have been possible in the original 1 month
schedule.
In the end, I invented a cover concept which comes very close
to telling the entire story in one picture.
The search. The chase. The key scenes. All wrapped up
with a bow.
For the next step, the
client mapped up the flow of the website. My key selling
point is that I was able to bring the directive to life
with interesting, inventive style. The list of links
became a chain of exploding gift boxes. The elf and
box motif from the cover of the book is animated into
life as website navigation. I put a lot of heart into
the project. I played and recorded the xylophone roll
over sound effects. The website shows the extent of
my programming skills.
