1 Minute Book Covers

Today we worked in groups of 3 and generated ideas for our book covers. We had all read passages of the book and linked some of our ideas back to specific quotes as well as some coming from the overall theme of the book. We then took photos using modified objects such as wire or porridge. We created several sets of images which could then be used as book covers.

So far, all of my cover designs seem to follow the same format of: image in middle of page with text above and below so I am eager to move away from this and try out some other type methods. 



We decided to make some type from porridge, as Goldilocks is mentioned in the book. We chose to just do the word 'nearly' to highlight it, as this is the word which is stressed most when reading the title.



Whilst I think the idea of creating type from something unconventional is a great approach, I think this just looks really gross and it isn't clear that its porridge.
