This is what I need from YOU before I can start lettering your project:

PUBLISHER/PRINTER SPECS
* If you already have a publisher/printer in mind, find out what their final file size requirments are so I can turn in files you can use at the end of the job. If you don't know who will print your comic yet, I generally letter at 10.5" X 7" and export all pages as .TIF files, but all specs are different, so make sure I have this before I start on your job. Many a headache will be avoided.

ART
* Again, be certain your artist has also adhered to the publisher/printer specifications as noted above. If possible, I like to receive a character sheet featuring art of all the characters to make identification 100% accurate, especially if your script doesn't include art descriptions.
* FOR PRINT: Black & white files should be in Grayscale color mode in 300 dpi resolution and sized according to your publisher/printer specifications including all appropriate bleeds.
Color files should be in CMYK color mode in 300 dpi resolution and sized according to your publisher/printer specifications, also with appropriate bleeds.
* FOR WEB: Black & white files should be in Grayscale color mode in 300 dpi resolution.
Color files should be in RGB color mode in whatever resolution you are comfortable using, though 300 or less is acceptable.

SCRIPT
* Here is a tried & true article about creating a comic book script. I need something like this as a script when possible. Sending me a page with page numbers and dialogue only is okay, but I prefer a full script including the same panel by panel descriptions given to the artist. These help me identify the characters if a characater sheet is not provided.
* When sound effects are necessary and you want them included, please write them as you want them to appear. Don't put "grunt sound" or "gunshots". Please be exact! You may not like the ones I come up with on my own... plus, you're the writer.
* Any format should work, but my favorites are PDF, DOC & RTF.
* It helps tremendously if you let me know in advance if any of your script is in a foreign language, thus requiring a font with international characters.

DEADLINE
