The Jungle Dream - Interior Spreads

THE JUNGLE DREAM for MIRELIBOOKS 

During the extent of this project, the designer (Lindsey Daniels) will create a 24-spread/48-page children’s book layout that will be ready for final print production upon completion of the project.

DELIVERABLES: 

  • text format options for interior + 2-3 example interior spreads

  • book size options & selection

  • 1-2 round revisions 

  • Illustration file retouching

  • book cover resizing

  • final, print-ready file delivery 

GENERAL PROCESS 

Upon delivery of initial interior spread concepts (see project scope for detail), Miriam Bucheli will either: a) approve and select one of the interior page examples, including font, layout, size, or b) Miriam Bucheli will provide written feedback for Lindsey to discuss any desired changes, tweaks, or alterations. 

This process will then lead to a round of revisions that will be returned for approval. Once layout is approved, Lindsey will continue to lay out the 48-page book to approved specifications and submit for final approval. 


LightDark reserves the right to show any artwork, ideas, sketches created for this project in a portfolio as examples of client work. This can be during the project and also on completion. If you have any specific ‘secrecy/stealth mode’ requirements, please mention this before agreeing to the proposal, and we will adjust accordingly.
