STYLE & TONE:Follow style and tone of book cover. Creating a webspace that can be revisited to follow upcoming releases and touring information. Convincing the user to purchase the book by showing excerpts without giving it away. OBSTACLES:Keeping the site mature enough for the audience while still using the overall feel and graphic nature of the novel. It will also promote the author’s book tours. PURPOSE:The purpose of this website is to allow users to read about the novel, characters, and see snip-its from the story as well as to get them to purchase the novel and potentially others by the same author. There might as well be an older following of people that follow all of the author’s works that can be considered a secondary target audience. Being a graphic novel and not a comic, it has a storyline that can be be romantic or dramatic. I would suggest upper to mid twenties for men and lower twenties to early thirties for women. TARGET AUDIENCE:Men ages 24-40, interested in graphic novels as well as intricate stories Women ages 22-30, likes romantic stories as well as comicsThe target audience is a more mature group as far as age goes, since this graphic novel is not a traditional children’s comic. It should offer a link to purchase the book or other books by the same artist as well as an event page that shows tours and upcoming releases. Website needs to be visually similar, but not the same as the book cover. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:Create a website to promote the graphic novel, Asterios Polyp.
