A short story written, designed, and built by me
Inspired by secrets.
Project Overview:
The goal of this project was to write and design a short story based off two photos of our choosing.
I designed a short story, had it physically printed, built out the ebook using Adobe XD, and created a movie title sequence for when the book is created into a movie (Yes, I’m the next Stephen King for sure).
Deliverables:
Full Story
Book Design
Clickable Ebook
Movie Title Sequence
Plot
A man gets fired from his job moves to a cabin in Upstate New York. Immediately, weird things start happening in the house like things are out of place, there’s footprints going no where, finger prints on the windows, knocking with no one there, and other mysteries.
One day he sees a woman floating in all black in the pond outside his house. He jumps in the water to save her but when he’s in the pond, no one is there.
He soon realizes that he’s being haunted by his own past and with the help from his neighbor. He slowly starts to remember and realizes that he is the bad guy--putting everyone he knows in harms way.

Let’s make this book into a movie.
I created a movie title sequence for the book I created in Adobe After Effects. Built for a visual and auditory experience to get the overall feeling for the book.
