Questions & Answers

DPP is a multi-media content studio. We adapt comics, manga, and graphic novels into vertical scroll digital editions. We produce short-form animation and live action content for vertical platforms. And we build interactive, user-generated experiences like AR games and choose-your-own-adventure formats. From adaptation to original production — we help IP reach audiences on the screens they use most.

Vertical comics are digital works designed for scrolling on mobile devices and tablets. They transform page-based comics into continuous vertical reading experiences. Unlike printed comics, they reveal scenes progressively, and unlike webtoons created natively for scrolling, these are adapted from existing works for digital platforms.

Vertical comics display optimally on mobile phones and tablets, though they're accessible across devices. Major distribution platforms include Apple Books, Kindle, Google Play Books, Webtoon, Tapas, and GlobalComix — all offering smooth scrolling. Desktop browser viewing is possible but less ideal than mobile's natural continuous-scroll experience.

Modifications include reformatting for vertical scrolling, adjusting panel layouts, pacing, lettering placement, and backgrounds/transitions. We don't change storylines, characters, or dialogue — we adapt the format, not the art.

We produce short-form episodic content built for vertical screens — typically bite-sized episodes adapted from existing IP. We work in a partnership model with IP holders, bringing stories to life through animation and live action. Our team has feature film production experience backing every project.

These are co-branded interactive experiences that put the audience inside the story. Think location-based AR games, choose-your-own-adventure narratives, and other formats where fans actively engage with your IP rather than passively consuming it. It's a new frontier for audience engagement and brand partnerships.
