Writer seeking artist (PAID)
Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2014 6:43 pm
Now, I'm starting a little early here, but I am one who likes to get all my ducks in a row.
I am an as aspiring writer currently working on my first serious attempt at a comic, a post-zombie-apocalypse vampire story. I will give more details to the interested parties as they come, but it's going to be a bit of a character study. Picture the novel "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy meets "The Road Warrior" with zombies and vampires.
It's a lot deeper than that, but I am very protective of my intellectual property.
It will be five issues long.
I'm looking for an experienced artist, talented in shading and color, with interest in the genre. I'm also looking for a bit of a collaborator, as well. What I mean by this is, though the script is going to be pretty well laid out for panel angles and placement, as it's my first run on this, I want some artistic input. If you think a certain angle would work better artistically, or two panels could be turned into one, an additional panel here for more effect etc., I would like that kind of input. I want you to have as much fun writing it as I am drawing it.
Like I said, this is early. The script for the first issue is written and going through the editing process, and I'm well into the second one. I know exactly how it's all going to play out, I just need to write it down.
I do have plans to pitch this to Image as well.
The reason for the early search is that, like most aspiring writers, I am BROKE. I work just above min. wage and have a family to support, so I am going to be making a kickstarter for this project.
I am looking for a flat rate for the whole series or by book so I can put the green light on the kickstarter for the whole amount.
Now, once I have found the artist, I would like to give 25-30 bucks right off the hop for a rough character sketch and 1st issue cover to add to the kickstarter page, so as not to look plain.
You can message me if your interested here with links to work, or just e-mail me directly at jonnyward90@gmail.com.
Thank you for your time.
