Dudley and the Toy Keeper’s Chest

Writer, Art Director

Picture Book, 2015

A children’s picture book based on my award-winning short film of the same name. I was approached by indie-comic publisher Blue Juice Comics, Inc., who were looking to branch out beyond comics and wanted to turn my film into a picture book.

Wrote a manuscript, based on the film, deciding on what text and images should appear on each page.Worked with publisher to find and hire an illustrator to execute on my designs.

Worked closely with the illustrator on character design, mood, and the color script of the book.

Created look book and character design sheets, to ensure the characters had the right feel for the book, while still remaining true to their original designs from the movie.
