Graphic design layout ideas
I am putting together a pitch document and are looking for some graphic design ideas to improve presentation and layout. I would like to start with two particularly clunky pages in what we have so far. If someone could look at these two pages for say, two hours and give me some ideas. Whatever ideas and alternatives you can set out in that time. If that is helpful perhaps we can look at more. My requirement is immediate, this afternoon/evening. The pages are created in Indesign and I can share the file. The two pages in question feature 14 still frames from an animation, 7 on each page. I need to get the idea across that this is an animation. Then there are two short text paragraphs of information. Finally there are some lines of poetry in the background for context. The document is 210mm square. It will be presented as an emailed pdf.
I need a cartoon character!
Hi! I'm a published poet and I'm in the process of setting up a new website. The website will feature poetry puzzles by a character named Word-Bird. Initially, I'd just like one JPEG image of Word-Bird, by way of introduction. I attach an image I created myself many years ago. I'm afraid it's not very good, but it provides a rough idea of what I'd like. The colours are nice, I think. The feet could definitely be improved; perhaps Word-Bird could be wearing sandals. We'd just need to work out how to incorporate words onto Word-Bird's cape.
Artist/illustrator needed for poetry book
I am in the process of collating my poetry into a book of poems. I want someone who can read a poem and paint/illustrate it into an image. I have around 10-15 poems I want to get painted/illustrated and they cover different topics. I do not have set requirement and would like someone artistic to read my work and then paint it. However I can give guidance if i feel the imagery does not match or suit the poem. Free reign on this project and it is on going project as I still write from time to time.

Poetry book- 20 Pencil illustrations/sketches
I'm looking for an illustrater who can produce some pencil illustrations/sketches to go alongside a poetry book I'm looking to publish. In total I'll need about 20 small sketches to go with each poem. They'll be based on the theme of the poem. In terms of sizes the illustration should be small something that can occupy the bottom of the page after the poem. The poems will be shared with the artist/illustrater as well as a specification with ideas on what to produce for each poem but happy for the artist to use their distinct style and creative licence in line with the theme. The poems are ready to go. In terms of an idea of what I'm looking for you can google illustrations from morden poets such as rupi kaur to understand the kind of illustrations that go with poetry books.

Book Cover & Pencil Drawings Required
I am publishing a poetry book covering several genres and require a colour book cover and 15 non-colour pencil drawings each relating to a different poem. In relation to the cover, it will be down to the artist to come up with something attractive to the eye - no specific brief given. I will give a vague idea of what the pencil drawings might look like, but poetry is interpretive so again, I would expect a creatively-minded artist to be able to come up with something great for each poem. If you think you’ve got the creativity and can provide the finished pieces exceptionally quickly, get in touch!
