SCBWI NZ Webinar: Cover Stories with Lisa Allen
Can you tell a book by its cover? Book covers are important in making a book. Sometimes shortcuts are taken and images are used from within the book for the cover - this often falls flat, and is a lost opportunity in visually beginning the story before the first page.
You will learn what works and what doesn't in making book covers that are not only engaging but stand out on booksellers shelves.
With Lisa you will explore; iconic book covers, the element of colour, our crazy brains and how we visually read images & text, typography: finding the perfect font, names – author or illustrator: who comes first? plus many other topics to do with book cover design. Ideal for authors, illustrators and those looking to self-publish.
