Looking for Illustrator for YA Mystery Graphic Novel (Initial Assets & Pilot Page) - Contract to Hire
I am a graphic novel writer based in Los Angeles looking for a dedicated illustrator to create character assets, a sample page, and a simple teaser poster for a graphic novel. There is potential to grow into a long term creative partner for this graphic novel in the future.
The story is a YA mystery featuring a diverse cast and a cat with special abilities.
I am seeking an artist who can blend the cinematic composition of Saga and Into the Spiderverse with the character-driven emotional elements found in Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra. The project requires an artist who can capture:
• Diverse Character Design: Nuanced portrayals of biracial and multicultural characters.
• Atmospheric Environments: Capturing the specific look and feel of suburban environments (Los Angeles).
• Sequential Storytelling: Dynamic panel pacing that balances mystery and humor.
Deliverables:
• 1 Pilot Page + 2 Character Sheets + 1 Simple Teaser Poster
Requirements:
• Portfolio demonstrating Sequential Art (actual comic/graphic novel pages).
• Strong communication and ability to meet monthly milestones.
• Ability to capture local Los Angeles architecture and urban lighting is a plus
• Open worldwide with a strong preference for an LA-based artist
