Sydney, Australia - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sydney, Australia – June 11, 2014 – ‘Bella’s Secret Garden – A Magical Photographic Storybook’ has been released for iPad. Available now in the Apple App Store. Bella’s Secret Garden is a beautiful photographic reading experience with multiple interactive elements, sound effects and gorgeous narration by 5 yr old Bella.
Bella’s Secret Garden is a family development effort by Jemma Upson, a NZ born, Sydney-based professional newborn, child and family photographer and represents the culmination of many years of taking photos, sewing dresses, writing children’s stories and photo editing. As a developing photographer with a passion for sewing, Jemma practiced by taking photos of her young daughter, Bella, in the many different fairy dresses she had made. When Bella was 3, Jemma edited the fairy photos together with photos she had taken of her mother’s garden to create a beautiful bedtime story for Bella and her two younger brothers. A couple of years later Jemma learned about the amazing Photoshop plugin ‘Kwik by kwiksher’ and her family took on the challenge of turning the storybook into a magical iPad application for children.
Key Features:
- Unique approach to interactive children's books using photography edited together to create scenes with animation and beautiful particle effects
- Fun storybook with read-to-me and read-myself modes
- Interactive fairies, funny sound effects and sneaky slugs to find on each page
- Five bonus fairy puzzles to complete
The result is ‘Bella’s Secret Garden – A Magical Photographic Storybook’ which debuted at #2 for Paid iPad Books in the NZ App Store and at #17 in the same category in the Australian App Store.
