To kill a mockingBird

 Originally when the task was set i began to read the Hunger Games, trying to seperate the book from the film (as i had just watched it) was very difficult. I decided to read To kill a MockingBird instead.

Although it is a hard read, i enjoyed creating the cover for this book.

Below is the first cover

 

 

I then mocked it up onto a book ready for my group crit session

 

 

The outcome of the group crit was a very positive one, i had achieved a strong book cover that looks like it could be published. I felt the back of the book was too plain, although it worked well with the subtle front cover i wanted to do something else with the cover. Below is the outcomes

This was what i came up with first, i felt that you lost the text in the back cover, it needed to be darker so the white writing would stand out. i want easy to read text.

This is my final outcome for the book, i was not sure if the back cover would work as the plain back gave it a strong look but i managed to achieve a much stronger book cover.
