Design development on one minute book covers


Further developments 


Because I wasn't very happy with how the initial one minute covers turned out, I decided to play around more with their compositions and tried using other primary images I took. These used the same image, but played around with text positioning and editing. 


This image intended to explore the concept of the universe being created in the time it takes to make a sandwich, as well as the open mouth conveying references to black holes. I think that this concept could be pushed further, and that this design itself lacks a strong composition; also the text lacks any connection to the book itself. Next week I intend to focus on this area as typography is a weak area for me. 


I decided to experiment with halftoning the image and creating a left alignment for the text; I think the text needs to be bigger and should reflect themes of the book itself. Also, I feel like the image is slightly too ambiguous? 


I decided to abstract the image further to play with editing; I think I prefer this edited version as it looks more visually striking composition wise.
