NODACHI TRANSLATES GRAPHIC NOVEL FOR UPCOMING MOVIE

Jack Said – the move based on the graphic novels depicting British gangsters and ultra violence has performed well in its debut release. Now available at Virgin megastores. Creator Simon Philips, has written a prequel and wants to create another graphic novel and eventually turn it into another movie; “Jack Says” For the novel, he anticipates a strong Japanese following “We feel that there is great potential in the Japanese manga market for a graphic novel that tells the back story to “Jack Said”. If we were to translate the whole novel then we could do a limited edition release to gauge its popularity” Producer / Writer Simon Philips came to Nodachi to perform all the redesigning of the DVD and novel cover, and to handle translation and re-versioning for the Japanese market.

After the job was complete, Simon was convinced that the graphic novel looked as good on the shelves in Japan as any of its competitors. “I highly recommend Nodachi for their project management skill”
