To coincide with the other photoshop thread,

[t to the maxx2]

My final exam project for graphic design is to redesign a book cover. This will be all done in school. What are some suggestions? Im thinking To kill a Mockingbird, with a smoking shotgun and a dead bird, but I doubt that will go over well. LOL, what are some other good ideas you have?

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

Any book?

[t to the maxx2]

Pretty much.

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

War and Peace.

[FreeRideFrosty]

Nope... Definitely Angels and Demons. Think of all of the possibilities there...

to kill a mocking bird was the worst book i ever read

so that means it has to compete with one other

[PoPRC]

First thing once you decide on the book, you must read it! First principle of design is know your material. I would suggest Truman Capotes "In Cold Blood", Albert Camus " The Stranger", "The Fall", "The Plague". Kurt Vonnegut "Breakfast of Champions". I cant think of any others right now, all great Books.

Davinci Code (sp?)

JAWS but with a pic f when the chief is on the boat chumming the water the the shark just shows up out of the water.

Is Jaws a book also? Or was it only a movie?

[FreeRideFrosty]

Davinci Code (sp?)

By the same author as Angels and Demons. I have not read davinchi's code yet and I am almost done with angels and demons. It is by far my favorite book of all time. I highly reccomended reading it. Cmon... I loved it so much I put the davinchi code on my christmas list. What teenager puts a book on their christmas list???

[GWPHOENIX]

try MISERY. i beleve from steven king. the movie wasn't to far off from the book,except the end. plus it was a short, quick,good, weekend read.

Nope it was originally a book by Peter Benchly (sorry one of my favorite books and movies). I think we gonna need a bigger boat!! :bustingup

Chief, put out the fire.

[t to the maxx2]

Ok today was the first day back in class, and I was the only one who brought in a book, LOL.
I brought in Catcher in the Rye, but now im thinking thats a bad idea, so Im going to do it on something else. I will post a pic when I am done, its due the 19th

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

It's good, but is it your best effort? I think you can do better.

[t to the maxx2]

ALright, I like that encouragement! I am going to try again right now.
Also, for the main picture on the front, I am thinking of taking a cheap book and burning it and taking a picture of that, becuase the whole part of this project is no using google for pics, everything has to be original hand made stuff.
Brb, starting over

edit: I've lost my mind.

I think the background needs something. The lettering just doesn't look clean here. The letters should be crisp and then flow into the fire. I dunno... I think it is almost to basic and you are trying to make it look difficult. Just my opinion...

[Tex]

I think it looks HOT!

[DAVEC-NITRO-RS4]

I still think you can do better...you're not working to your full potential....do you feel this is your best effort?
