Let’s Talk to Woof Woof!
Children’s Book Design & Production
I designed this children’s book by transforming projection artwork from a theatrical dance production into fully composed, illustrated spreads. In addition to layout design and hand-lettered typography, I created new illustrations and meticulously crafted each composition using Procreate & Photoshop to build a cohesive visual narrative. As an independent project, I also managed the full production process from concept to manufacturing and print.
The Process:
Sourced custom manufacturing for specialty specs: saddle-sewn binding, curved corners, laminated glossy pages.
Negotiated pricing, scope, and production contracts.
Storyboarded manuscript in collaboration with the author to craft pacing, rhythm and visual impact with each spread.
Concepted and composited illustrations using assets from the theatrical production, video stills, and original artwork files.
Created supplemental custom illustrations and hand-lettered all page typography in Procreate.
Applied industry-standard book design conventions with expert feedback (title page, end pages, CIP, margins).
Prepped final files for print and managed production handoff.
Designed Kickstarter campaign visuals (fully funded) and formatted a version for Amazon KDP.
