Hokusai

The history of the artist who made Orient known to the Western countries is at the core of the graphic biography created by Studio RAM, we coordinated the creative team that took care of the dialogues and the drawings of the comic book biography of the artist famous for his Big Wave and other works.
The book, which is historically correct and rich in inserts useful to understand japanese culture, has been translated in German, French and English and is a fascinating opportunity to get closer to the life and art of Hokusai. We at RAM created the concept, the graphic design and the lettering of the comic book biography, we closely followed all the phases necessary to realise a comic book, from the creation of the drawings, the script and the colours, to the editing process and the preparation of the final print file. To promote the book, we also created the book-trailer to synthesise the comic and collect the most significant scenes described in Hokusai graphic biography.
