Objective: In this project we were tasked to create a book jacket which include front cover, spine, back cover, and Inside flaps in different dimensions. The project I recreated was the book "The Crossover" by Kwame Alexander because it's about sports and I like playing basketball.
Direction: First, I filed the whole cover with color orange which represents a basketball. Then trace a man dribbling the ball using pentool. Next, I used the pentool to create a spot light on the front cover to attract the eyes and the shadow. Next, I created a logo company on the spine using pentool in illustration and the same text letter as in the front cover. Next, I created the ball spinning on the finger using pentool in illustration, paste the scan bar, and used the text to surround the image i create on the back cover. Then, on the inside flaps I put my image on and the author of the book and write about the author and I.
Likes: What I like about this project is the shadow on he front cover, the text surrounding the ball, and the color choice because it really shows that its about basketball.
Dislikes: What I don't like about my project is it has more words than picture or its too basic and simple.
Time: It takes about 20 hours to finish this project.
