Seeking storyboard artist for pre-production of new web series “Penitence”.

Synopsis:
A father seeks vengeance against the Mob for the death of his daughter. On this road of revenge our hero finds a new perception of sin and virtue within the world. This philosophical drama asks the question, how far can one push against evil before becoming a monster themselves and where will one have to draw the line with forgiveness?

Penitence will be presented in a 13 episode web drama as a live action comic noir.  Each episode uses the theme of a deadly sin or its corresponding virtue.  Jared Blakley and Joel Martin worked on the script for me this summer and I'm trying to finish pre-production this next school semester for production in May.  I'm in need of a storyboard artist to complete a storyboard of the series by March 10th, but as you might guess I don't have a budget yet.  What I would like to purpose is that in addition to the web series we package the storyboard as a comic that can be sold separate or with a DVD of the series, and pay the artist and the writers a royalty from the net income from the comic book sales (splitting it evenly at 33% each).  Additionally, I would like to put into writing something that includes a buy-out clause for the total the work is worth that we could refer to if the series, characters, and/or concept is brought out from me.  The contract would be used a negotiation tool as well as a reference when/if money becomes involved.


If you are interested please send me a .pdf of a couple samples of your work and your contact information.

Thanks for your interest.
