The Making of Tutti Fruitti School Band

What happens when a passion for the multimedia and entertainment field meets the rhythmic world of live music? You get a story that dances right off the page!
For Ed Walwail, writing and illustrating “Tutti Fruitti School Band” wasn’t just about sitting at a desk—it was about getting out into the heart of the music scene. Ed spent countless hours immersed in the magic of live performance to ensure this book captured the true spirit of creativity.
🎷 Inspired by the Beat
To bring the characters to life, Ed drew inspiration from:
- Live Shows & Musical Events: Attending vibrant concerts to capture the energy of the crowd and the passion of the performers.
- The Magic of Theater: Watching how stage lighting, costumes, and choreography tell a story without saying a word.
- Backstage Observations: Understanding the teamwork and “rehearsal hustle” that goes into making a perfect performance.
Ed’s journey through jazz clubs, theater halls, and outdoor festivals allowed him to translate the “feeling” of music into visual art. He wanted every child reading to feel the bass in their chest and the melody in their heart.
