Bluewater Productions teams up with Authorly to develop first animated interactive comic books.   This week the first release in the partnership is Fame: Jennifer Lawrence and will follow with the fiction title Dorian Gray later this month.

Fame: Jennifer Lawrence was turned into an app with Authorly, a tool that turns static content into interactive digital applications. Jennifer Lawrence fans can now engage and interact with the story. Click on "audio hotspots" to hear sound effects play and swipe to navigate through Lawrence's journey toward an Oscar. Authorly apps include features such as narration, word-by-word highlighted text, audio and video hotspots, basic animation and movements, sound effects and background music, and more!

Authorly is a tool that lets authors, illustrators, and publishers turn their visually driven stories into interactive storybook apps and directly publish them to iTunes, Google Play, and the Amazon App Store. These creators can use the do-it-yourself tool and no longer risk their time and money by relying on software developers.

“Not only is Authorly one of the first companies to focus on truly interactive storybook applications, but it is also unique in the sense that it gives authors, illustrators, and publishers a Do-It-Yourself tool to create and publish these high quality apps themselves,” said Bluewater publisher Darren G. Davis. “We always like to try new an unique things that pushes the boundaries of the comic book industry”

The comic book biography on the life of Academy Award winning actress Jennifer Lawrence. Lawrence, also recently nominated for Supporting Actress for her role in American Hustle, will be part of the popular Fame series.

May the odds be ever in Jennifer Lawrence's favor.  Bluewater Productions popular line of biography comic books continues with Fame: Jennifer Lawrence.  Join writer Michael Troy and artist Ben Eargle for an exploration of Jennifer's career from starring in successful X-men and Hunger Games franchises to winning a best actress Oscar for her celebrated role in Silver Lining's Playbook to her Oscar nomination in American Hustle.
