Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Hello, I have written a short children's story for the pre-school market. The text is brief and simple. The book will consist of around 24 pages, of which there might be about 15 pictures in a spread format (I'm not sure how accurate this is because I'm new to this kind of book). I will also need a cover design.
I am looking for someone to illustrate the book and the cover, but to also add in the text I want in a consistent format - i.e be responsible for all layout, fonts etc - and to save that in a .pdf file to my specification (I'll provide details, but briefly, the book size will be 8.5" x 8.5", full colour, at least 300 dpi resolution, CMYK colour space and the PDF spec will likely need to have its version compatibility set for Acrobrobat 6.0/PDF V1.5).
I will be publishing the book through my own publishing company. The illustrator will be expected to assign copyright to my publishing company, and will only be able to re-use the images with permission. The illustrator will be identified as such in the book when it is published.
I am hoping to form a good relationship with a talented illustrator (possibly someone just starting out) who wants to get their name known, or work published for their CV. I am hoping that if it works out that this could be the start of a series.
I have no idea how to price this job, or how many hours it could take. It would be helpful if bidders could provide me with an overall price (or price per hour x the number of hours in total they expect to work on the project).
I like the styles of well-known children's book illustrators Axel Scheffler and Jill Murphy, if this helps.
Thank you!
