yeah what's up guys so in this video I'm going to show you guys how to create a interior for
coloring box coloring books right I have published a lot of coloring books okay and
it's safe to say that it's a process right it's it takes a little bit of time so it's there's gonna
be less competition when it comes to creating a coloring book of course but one of the ways
to stand out is actually create custom custom illustrations write custom line drawings that
you can put in a coloring book okay being unique different standing it will stand out from everyone
else right if you have something that no one else has you're creating less competition for yourself
okay I'll say that over and over and over again but yeah I almost want to show you the steps of
creating interior for your coloring book okay and this is gonna basically pretty much just
create creating that interior and kind of give you all the basic stuff that you need to know
and the knowledge to help you guys understand of what to do when creating a into here for a
coloring book because I know that it can kind of be a little bit overwhelming but it's once
you have the process down it's pretty simple right it's pretty simple so I guess want you guys to go
into the mentality of this going to this this video learning like this is easy guys this is
easy just gotta understand the process get the foundation down learn that and then you can do
anything else now you can do anything pretty much right you can do anything so understand
the fundamentals and just crush it and that's it like just go into their understanding what
you need to do if you need to outsource if you're creative on your own if you can draw
to do it so yeah hope you guys enjoyed this video let's get into the computer but if you
guys haven't subscribed to my channel subscribe at my channel too as well into the computer
what's going on hello how's it going so I'm show you guys how to create the interior for a coloring
book the sizing out in another video too as well I went I made a video on how to create
your cover because it depends like what the size you're gonna do but for this example we're going
to 88.5 by 11 and the cover creating your cover okay it's kind of like a whole different process
and I break it down in another video and I'll put it up here somewhere so you guys can check that
out I guess recommend that you guys watch that video so you guys can get a better idea of how
the cover works because it's all like depending on how many pages you have okay in your interior
that makes the sizing of your cover okay so it all depends so you guys it's very important that
you guys understand that that right there I can throw off the dimensions of your book you can
mess up everything then you get overwhelmed you get I don't know what to do no more and I give
up so don't do that first things first I want you guys to understand that this is easy okay
the thought process of thought process of it is like tame this seems really hard and
I understand where people get this thing they think it's really hard but it's honestly it's
really easy okay so I want you guys to go in there now with the mentality in this video
going the mentality of thinking that you can do this okay so cuz you can okay so very important
that you understand that guys and another thing hopefully guys are being hope you guys are safe
and everything's okay everything's going okay for you guys with what's going on in the world
right now so I wanted to show you guys take it hi shout out much love be safe so alright and
also I do have a free KDP Facebook group you guys haven't checked that out it's beep down
below in the description so right here we're in the back into PowerPoint okay and the first
thing this is I went over here and clicked on blank we're starting fresh right here there's
nothing on here as you can see nothing on here so we're gonna do is come over here to design
come over here to the right hand side to slide size them accustomed slide size right here okay
then we're gonna go ahead and saw the width of our interior it's gonna be eight point five right and
then the height it's gonna be 11 inches okay and then number of slides so just press on okay just
press okay okay insure fit boom boom all right now this is vert this is another thing too if you
mess up something you can just come over here the little undo page setup you can press that and it
goes back so if you accidentally delete something guys it's really easy for you to go back and fix
it okay so if you accidentally mess say you delete something and you put something here just go back
so you do this just go back well okay so very simple so if you mess up you can fix it so don't
be afraid to mess up okay first things first don't be afraid to mess up so now what I usually do
no less than 20 ellis trations per book okay and what that means it's in a book there's gonna be 40
pages because with the coloring book I leave the black the back blank okay basically what that does
is when the whoever's coloring okay it doesn't go through the page right and it doesn't link
over on the other side so you don't want to mess up the color so you don't want to look all look
so I leave the back paint back plate back page of the of the front illustration blank and I'll
show you the example in here as we go along that right there is just better right people when they
color their you don't want it to bleed through the other side right so I'm very important that
you guys understand that so copy so what we're gonna do is we're gonna put 40 pages and you
can see on the down right here there's a slide to out of to where you hit hit that into us as
40 and there's a little tricky copies highlight a few of these bad boys right copy see then copy be
copy be copy be copy be boom 40 pages right so we're done right there now the first page right
here okay that's justice for example the first page is going to be this book belongs to right so
okay you gotta kind of want to make it custom to the your audience right so that's important
that you guys understand that delete come on delete delete there it goes okay this right
here is you want it to the person that purchases this book whoever they get it for right you want
to make something custom right here okay this book belongs to you see a lot of that when you
do your research okay you'll see a lot of that you want to make it personalized today to that
human being right whoever buys it right put your name here like you not I mean anything with that
relation so I and what I'm teaching you guys is I want you guys to put your own flip on it and make
it work for you as you're building your brand on KDP this is a very very important if you're
artistic if you if you suck at drawing like me and you outsource a lot of your stuff it's
important that you understand that this right here you want to make it feel like it belongs
to them okay so very important that you guys understand that so that's for the page 1 page
1 and then page 2 okay what I like to do is I always like to what I like to do is once what
I'd like to do right here is put the branding okay so you're Brandon with Katie on KDP you
want to put a little bit about yourself okay I was like kind of like that bouchy beige promotes
your branding stuff like that put your like your copyright claims in here and stuff like that he
want to make sure you this right here is gonna be like more about your brand okay so very important
that you guys understand that kind of you want to give it like that a number that professional
kind of branding feeling you know I mean make the customer feel like like it's professional so it's
important that you guys understand that so right here this will be like about you about your brand
and stuff like that kind of you want to relate to the customer touch them touch the customers
heart right whoever bought this okay and then okay this one right here so this is front front
okay so this would be an illustration right here okay what I would do is put an illustrator let me
do okay this right here would be a illustration so now for this example I'm glad we're gonna go
ahead and insert the picture insert well right you can see how it kind of it it's already molded into
the actual actual uh the interior size so this right here you guys you guys can see you know if
you guys need to I would you can see you can move it here and here move it into zooming in but this
is actually perfect right there right so you can see how I did this now when it comes to this guy's
it all depends like on your personal preference okay that's all about it's all about testing okay
it's very important that you guys understand this this right here is obviously a cat holding a beer
right or act like it's holding a beer you want to understand okay this is important that you know
if you're artistic and you understand what you're doing when it comes to drawing the same thing with
you too as well as as an individual when you're trying to sell your own art it's important that
you understand that like understand get into a mind of a person that's coloring a book right
there's people out there that enjoy coloring books right and they're very that's all they
do is purchase coloring books and stay home and color all day they love to do this type of stuff
so so there's an audience for this so you want to make sure when you're have if you outsource
this excuse me if you outsource this or if you if you're doing this yourself you want to understand
back the coloring book Misha I understand what these people want when their coloring okay so for
this video just is just an example but as you guys can see right it's pretty cool it's pretty cool
but I this right here I didn't like how it came out so well I didn't like how like I don't like
how it came out I didn't like it at all so then now this is the back page okay so we're gonna move
on to the back page what I would do right here I would leave this blank because that this person
is coloring this right on the back it's gonna a little big through so I'll leave this blank and
bumbum okay and then we're going to go ahead and insert the next one coloring your electrician boom
okay and then it's it's the same process so as as you guys can see how I'm doing this most of my
coloring books have no less than 20 ellis trations per book okay and the way i like to do it some of
the books they have more than 20 illustrations right forty fifty right and then of course it's
always leave the next page blank so it doubles so if i have twenty illustrations it's gonna be
a 40 page book right yeah so so blank next one illustration very simple huh very very simple
all right boom blank
you
there's a war on I might repeat some of these so but for the example of
the video I just wanted to show you guys exactly what I'm doing
like I said - it's very easy guys and most people they kind of just they overlook this
and it's very simple so I just I just want to bring this to your guys's attention show
you guys how to do a coloring book and you can see what the illustrations - you can
see it has like the border effect on it you don't have to have that if you want
to guess it makes it a little bit because it makes it a little nicer I guess alright
you
and this is just dealing with this with PowerPoint - there's other
programs you can do that out there with with like
Photoshop of course you can do it with
and design what's the other one affinity publisher so there's other tools you can
do out there with what I just wanted to show you guys the PowerPoint way cuz I know that a lot of
people they love PowerPoint so show you guys how to do it in PowerPoint I just uploaded that one I
all right so I think you guys get the point okay I'm gonna come going through all these
right here skipping one page putting in another putting another illustration skipping one page
putting it in another illustration and I will do that all the way until I hit page 40 right
and the end right there okay so we'll be done with all the illustrations okay let's say for example
okay so for example I uploaded every single one of these and now that I'm done okay what I'm gonna do
is these so you're gonna rinse and repeat this whole process right here so illustration blank
page illustration blank page illustration blank page okay for this video for the example I just
said that we're done okay we're completely done we did it EP congratulations you created your first
coloring book interior like I said too if you guys want to learn how to make the actual cover itself
what I would recommend is watch this video another video that I told you at the very beginning and
how to create the cover because that's very important the cover is very important depending
on how many pages you have usually the boss for the most part of the sizing will be always
different so you guys want you guys to understand that process yeah yeah if you guys haven't joined
checked out the free Facebook group down below check that out too as well but yeah this is so
this is the whole process and everything and this is a cool part you want to make sure you save this
in PDF file in a PDF file so you're gonna come over here save as downloads and the file name
put and they need to come right here down below I'm gonna save it as a PDF right well alright so
we're gonna take this bad boy over here to KDP and we're going to test it as an upload and see if it
uploads all right as you guys can see uploaded it just to want to show you guys the interior
just just an example guys don't worry about another this stuff I'll probably blur out some
of this stuff so you guys don't pay attention to that so you guys you guys can see okay the
interior this book belongs to than the back page blank illustration back page blank illustration
back page blank illustration back page banky illustration ok back page blank illustration yeah
so hopefully this guy's this hopefully this helps you guys and gives you guys a better understanding
of how this would work how to create a coloring book ok whatever format whatever size you have
it in this is a way the way that she would do it in PowerPoint fairly simple very easy you
could do it yeah if you have any questions please comment down below like and subscribe peace out
