Minor 1 - Book Jackets

The brief set, was to choose a contemporary author and three of their books, then, to redesign the covers and create a container for them. I chose the author Tana French, the titles were; 'In the Woods,' 'The Likeness,' and 'Faithful Place.' 
These are the covers I created:

In the Woods

The Likeness

Faithful Place

All three books are crime/thrillers which all previously had manipulated photography as the covers, with a title and the authors name also. I have always had a tendency though, to use more hands on methods when creating imagery, and after experimenting with chalk and stencils, I used ink to create the covers. As the images by themselves are so bold, I decided not to put the title or authors name on the cover.

As the covers are so simple and use no colour, I took the same approach with the container. However, instead of using ink, stencils that had been used during the development process, were used instead.

This is the container:
