Student Work: Graphic Design Education

Book Jacket Designs

Students created book jacket designs for a publi­cation of their choice. Sketching and the overall process included what imagery or visual language is appro­priate for the story. Discus­sions also included the difference between stories told on printed pages and stories told on film. Filmog­raphy imagery was avoided on purpose. Students inves­ti­gated imagery for their book jacket designs that reflected either an important moment in the story or the overall spirit of the book.
