Beginning the Search for a Concept Artist

As Kevin immerses himself in the film's second draft, it's important to identify other areas of the development process that we can simultaneously concentrate on; designing business cards for networking purposes, researching other film's sales data for business plans, and last but not least, conceptualizing our monster's design. Working as a team allows us to divide and conquer, to remain focused on the bigger picture.

With "Nitecrawlers", we'd like to develop more of an organic monster than a stereotypical masked villain this time around. We've got some ideas kicking around that we'd liked to see fleshed out through an artists perspective. Once we enter pre-production, an FX artist will ultimately have the final say in our monster's design, however, for developmental purposes, an illustrator is needed for concept design for investor materials.

While projected investment returns and risk management details are immensely important to an investor, it's equally as important to brand your film from it's inception. After all, we are visual creatures by nature. We are selling our vision. Bring your ideas to life before you present to the investor. Let him see the film's potential through dynamic artwork; then capitalize on that excitement.

After reviewing 50 different on-line portfolios from artists around the world, we have a handful of potential illustrators fit for the job. Sometimes the internet can be a black hole of useless information, yet, for as much junk as there is out there, talent is always waiting to be discovered.

Stay tuned as we secure an illustrator and start to bring our ideas to life.
