18-month Calendar Design
about 8 years ago – Mon, Apr 18, 2016 at 02:37:33 PM

Hello everybody,

We hope you are doing well! :)
We are very glad to share with you the design of the calendar. It has been challenging, because doing an International calendar is not easy, and specially if it's 18 months... I think Desiree made an amazing job here!

We tried to include most of the International Holidays and Festivities with a special emphasis on the US and Spain. Please, if we missed an important day tell us by posting on comments or sending a message :)

The 18 month calendar

A few pictures: Here the PDF to visualize

Hey, it's not too late!

Some rewards did not include the calendar, but you are still on time to get yours. If you'd like to pick a copy, go to Backerkit and check the available add-ons.

We hope we'll be able to finish the design of the sketchbook and share it with you very soon.

Hope you'll have a great beginning of the week. Here in Barcelona the sun is shinning amazingly :)

Wallpapers + New Project: A tribute to Star Wars
about 8 years ago – Tue, Feb 09, 2016 at 04:28:00 PM

Hello supporters,

It's more than a month from the last update, time flies! 

At the moment, we working on the final design of the book, after receiving the final translation in English. We have been working also in the design of the bookmarks, which we added as a Stretch goal, and soon we'll share it with you to decide which ones we are going to print :)

For the moment, here you have a few wallpapers to decorate your computer. We hope this little gift makes the awaiting for Inspiration Dormant less hard ;)

You can download the wallpapers here. You'll find 2 sizes, Panoramic or Standard. Depending on the size of your screen, one will fit better than the other :)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We also wanted to let you know that we are very excited because we released a new, and very funny, project on Kickstarter. This is no other than David's tribute to the Star Wars Imaginary, called The Ink Harvest.

New project from David G. Forés
New project from David G. Forés

'The Ink Harvest' is a pocket-sized softcover art book. It measures 5.86x5.86 inches, and contains the result of an #Inktober challenge on Instagram. 31 illustrations and quotes on around 80-pages, all printed in high-quality textured paper.

Unlike other publications from Play Attitude, we WILL NOT publish any TRADE EDITION of 'The Ink Harvest', and will not be available after the Kickstarter. For David this is a very personal project, like a book to share with family and close friends :)

Moreover, we designed a few additional rewards to share with friends such as a very special set of 3 print boards, a set of postcards (that you'll be able to choose by voting our poll) and a set of 24 stickers. You can see more pictures and information of these rewards on 'The Ink Harvest' Project Page

Help us to make 'The Ink Harvest' a reality by sharing or backing the project and... 

May the Ink be with you!

BackerKit Invitation :)
over 8 years ago – Fri, Dec 11, 2015 at 06:12:58 PM

Hello everybody,

Our best friend: Backerkit

Everything is setup and ready! Visit your reward page on Backerkit and fill the required information to fulfill the reward. We know it's early stage, but it is important for two reasons:

  • We need the name for the acknowledgment section ASAP.
  • It helps us to calculate the units to print and also to forecast the quantity of shippings to every country.

You should have received an invitation from Backerkit in your inbox. If you cannot find it, follow the link to recovery page!

Page recovery link_: https://a-graphic-novel-that-inspires-inspiration-dormant.backerkit.com/

If you've got issues when filling the information or you'd like to tell us something about it, send a message through Kickstarter or contact [email protected] and I will be happy to assist you. :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What's Backerkit used for? It helps us to manage the rewards, pack them and it makes easier for everybody to check what's included in each reward, change the address and so on. You can also upgrade your reward, or include add-ons if you forgot during the campaign. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is still the option to get the book as a preorder on Backerkit. Not all the rewards are available (as an example signature, dedication and originals are exclusive for Kickstarter backers) but you can still get both editions of the book. If you've got a friend who missed it... send them to the pre-order page :)

Pre-order link_:

We remember our promises....

For those who shared the project and are waiting for the wallpapers and the extra tale.... Jay is actually translating the tale 'The Absence' and we only need a bit more of time to finish the design of the wallpapers & PDF, and send it to you. You'll have news very soon :)

------------------------------------- Indie Projects Highlight: -------------------------------------

Finally, I didn't want to miss the chance to mention another project that I really liked: Leftybooks, notebooks designed for left-handed minds

The imborrable team states that we live in a world designed and made for the right-handed. They raised up against it and created the first notebooks for left-handed people LOL! They propose a wide range of patterns for the cover, really beautiful and practical! Check it out here

Feel free to contact us for whatever you may need and keep talking,

Inspiration Dormant is a reality thanks to 631 people. Thank you so much!

We knew it was difficult, but we never thought it was impossible... and now it's a fact:

This is our fourth campaign, and we feel soooo lucky that we funded every project we presented! We work really hard but we've got the compensation with every new backer, with every new message and with your feedback.

It has been emotional and wonderful, and at the moment we can only say:

Thanks. 

Once again you made another dream come true.  

We can now blow the candle for this project! Enjoy this little clip with the celebration ;)

Since it is midday in Spain we are going to have an hamburger together, a very nice lunch with all the team to celebrate that this is A W E S O M E.

Tomorrow, we'll start working to prepare the PDF and wallpapers for all the amazing people that help us on spread the word about the project, and also to start with the translation of the book, prepare the surveys. 

Since our community is bigger now we want to find out a way to better stay in touch with you. We don't know still if we are going to do it through a blog, a Facebook group or so, but be sure we will be on touch.

Thank you so much for being here once again, and have a really nice day!

David and The Play Attitude team
