The Dreamland Chronicles Movie Poster…
Hey all…
So I’m headed to Philly in January for the American Library Association show (ALA for short)
I’ve never been. But I’m told that librarians like freebies (who doesn’t?)
So I had an idea to make a poster to give out.
THen I had another idea to make it look like a movie.
I’m not thrilled with the tagline. It sounds SOOOO presumptuous.
But…I’m told to shut up and leave it (mostly by my adoring wife)
So…I thought I’d show you all.
Hope you like it.

Ahhh, love the poster! I’m sure those librarians will, too. 😀
Wait…is it animated or is it hardcopy?

“Alex, we beat the pirates!”
“Cool…now where’s the Valium? I want to get it on with the elf princess…”
Now, you should just concoct some fake version of that random movie text at the bottom to make it look more like a movie poster 😀

I always wanted to do something like this, but I’m laaaazy.
Nice work, Scott.
That is very cool. Will these be able to be ordered at all? My library’s comic section is in the young adult section and there’s like NO posters. It would be awesome to see if they’d hang that one!!! (of course they’d have to buy the comics first…)
Poor Nastajia… lost her belly-button in some horrible accident, no doubt.
But wow, that Felicity…! Whew.
Thanks all!
Emily…
The posters are free at the ALA in Philly. So if you tell your librarians…maybe they could get a copy.
YAChrs…
He he…
I promise. Her belly button is still there.
🙂
Lose the ellipsis. It’s not grammatically correct. Otherwise, nice poster!
Ok…couple questions…
1) what’s an elipsis?
2) where is it?
They’re talking about the “…” (a.k.a. an ellipsis) but I think it’s fine there. Of course I’m not the most grammatically correct person ever… but I do like my dramatic pauses 🙂
I’m diggin’ the poster though. I get what you mean with the tagline, but your wife is right its cute and its true! ;D
And aaaaah this paage, I cant wait now for the next updates and Dan’s reaction to the whole thing!! (He’s my favorite character I think :P)
You should put a high-res version of this up on wowio so that we can download it (and generate a bit of minor income for you too).
Sweet! I’ll buy tickets. 😛
Can we talk you into coming up to the British Columbia Library Association Meeting? I’m volunteering at that one… 🙂
I noticed in the background there’s a map of dreamland. Any chance you’ve made the full map available to speculating fans? Just the fact that there is a map suggests a few things compared to the geographic relativities explored in other dream/fairy lands. I’ve looked around the website, but no luck as of yet. So forgiveness if I’ve missed the obvious.
Simcha. Thanks.
I don’t know if they’ll allow that ( only books) but will check.
William…
Absolutely. Feel free to send me an email with details.
Thanks
Michael…
Actually it’s in all of the printed books available at the store. And I think it’s somewhere on the forums. But dont’ know where.
I love it, but I think you need to add (as someone else mentioned) the little text at the bottom. You know like “Starring Alex as the Knight in Shining Armor, Nastaji as the Haughty Elf Princess,” and so on. That would make it really look like a movie poster. 🙂
Wow! That poster ROCKS!!! Your wife is right, the tagline is great! I would love a copy of that for my dorm room next year!
