Penguin Random House - OUGD503, Studio Brief 01

Penguin, a brief suited to show off creative skills in a way that may not be available in other briefs. There is almost a more creative freedom with this brief with only a small handful of guidelines to work towards.
Three books;

Adult Fiction Cover Award, To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee.

Adult Non-Fiction Cover Award, In Cold Blood, Truman Capote.

Children's Cover Award, The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 133/4, Sue Townsend.

All books are highly rated and offer a completely different theme to tackle when creating a cover. To Kill a Mockingbird and In Cold Blood both have a serious note around them and are aimed at adults but because one is based on fact and the other on fiction there are different considerations. The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 133/4 is a children's book based around a child who classes himself as an intellectual but instead quite often gets the wrong end of the stick.

If time permits it would be good to look at all the covers and attempt a design for each.
