TPL Final Project: Book Cover

For out Typography class’s final project, we had to redesign a book cover, spine and back. I chose to redesign John Grisham’s book The Client, which was also made into a movie. I love John Grisham books, but most of them are pretty plain. I wanted to keep the simple design, because it sets the mood for most of his books – somber and serious. I kept it dark, but added my own image to the back cover, rearranged the text, added an image on the front. It’s simple, it looks like it’s a real book. I think I did ok.

B’loons

First Typography &Page layout project. Use text as a form of art, to make an image. I got a picture that I took of some balloons and layed it out with words. In the sky it says “Blue Sky”, “Balloons” in the balloons, and “Clouds” in the clouds. Some of them are layered, or example the darker clouds, and a few of the smaler darker clouds have text that I warped – so each letter individually. I had fun on this project but since then I’ve have many other ideas so I’ll be redoing this, and doing more. Fun fun =)
