AUTHOR BRAND CONTENT

CAMPAIGN INTERVIEW

£7,500 (+VAT)

A directed author interview filmed in a location selected to reflect the tone of the campaign. Gunpowder House conducts as well as films the interview, shaping the conversation around the author's personality and the title being launched. The format extends well internationally, giving the publicity campaign reach without the author needing to travel.

Recommended For:

Any author launching a specific title, and especially debuts where establishing the author's personality is part of the campaign strategy.

BRAND VOICE GUIDE

£5,000 (+VAT)

A strategic document that identifies and articulates the author's visual and editorial identity in relation to their audience. The output gives the author, their publisher, and future collaborators a shared creative language applicable across any production or campaign, and typically remains current for around three years before an author's evolution warrants revisiting it. Developed collaboratively with Gunpowder House, the guide is included at no additional cost alongside any production.

Authors building their identity from scratch, those preparing for a significant launch, and authors moving into a new genre or readership.
