A very unique project, perfectly suited to readers and writers has just come to the attention of Reader’s Entertainment. The Great Illustrator Project is a ‘crowdfunded’ project through Kickstarter.
The basic idea is to create an enormous library of illustrations by new and seasoned professional artists – The Blackfish Story App. This library will become an app that anyone can use to create their own books, worlds, universes and genuine storytelling. Children can drop in a background and add anything their imagination and the illustration library can create.
Author can utilize the features to storyboard for their books, teachers can create learning tools using vibrant illustrations, and anyone can enjoy the amazing artwork and innovative technology of The Great Illustrator Project.
Here’s information from the projects Kickstarter page:
With the Blackfish Story Creator app you can share your creation on any mobile device or computer.
Kids and Parents
Pledge for your creative kids who will get both an easy and technologically cool way to create their own stories using our story creator app and access to our library of high quality original illustrations created by our talented artists. Kids will create works they’ll be proud to share with friends and family.
Educators
Our app and art library can be used for school projects that can be demonstrated on electronic boards, computers, or tablets in the classroom. Parents and teachers can encourage reading, education, creativity and innovation.
Amateur Writers
A big barrier to anyone who wants to make a children’s book, is often the illustrations. This project will allow many more people to have resources to tell their stories and share them with friends and family. Contact us to learn how to publish your books.
Professional Authors
The Blackfish Story Creator app will be easy enough to use for kids, but will have sophisticated features that professionals can unlock and use. It is going to be our main publishing tool we’ll use at Customizabooks for our own book development. If you have your own illustrations, you’ll be able to use Blackfish Story Creator to create a digital book.
Creative Presenters
The Blackfish Story Creator app will be an effective, easy to use tool for prototyping story boards, movie scripts, journals, scrapbooks, photo albums, and greeting cards.
The project went live on May 14th and is seeking investors to help create the library and the technology platform needed to create the app. Everyone’s pledges to this Kickstarter project contribute to a big library of content that everyone can use. It’s a powerful and exciting approach and solves a huge problem for writers of all ages.
