Jank Words & Pictures
Jank Words & Pictures is built on over 30 years of experience in design, writing, and storytelling. Storytelling is at the heart of what we do. It’s how we bring ideas to life, connect with audiences, and create impactful narratives that resonate.
Whether it’s through graphic novels, exhibition picture books, zines, games, or even surface and swag design, we pride ourselves on turning creative visions into reality with precision and passion.
We recently completed a transatlantic exhibition, a collaboration between Canada and Scotland, Left at the Wellgate: The Untold Story of Mary Petrie Smith, and are currently working on an exhibition picture book set to release in spring 2025. Following that, we’ll be turning the story into a theatrical production.
Our projects reflect our commitment to high-quality, innovative storytelling. Our first graphic novel Blood Sucking Lawyers, a parody of the legal system, uses a groundbreaking photo illustration style. We’re excited to share this labour of love soon!
This winter 2024, we're excited to release Synopsis: The Storytelling Game on Kickstarter! This fast-paced, table-top game, perfect for storytellers of all kinds. With a mix of plot twists, wild characters, and unexpected settings, players have two minutes to craft their part of an entertaining, outlandish, or heartfelt story. Whether you’re a budding author or just love a good laugh, Synopsis turns game night into a creative adventure.
If you have a creative project in mind—whether it involves writing, design, or concept development—Jank can help you bring it to life. Check out our portfolio on our Jank Media & Design, we can discuss how we can collaborate on your next creative venture. Let's tell your story!
It's a busy day in the Jank office.
