THIS UNIVERSITY BRIEF OBJECTIVE WAS TO COME UP WITH A FICTIONAL BOOK COVER. THE INTENDED AUDIENCE WAS FOR YOUNG ADULTS in the supernatural and psychological genre, so i used darker undertones for this project. I MADE THE CHOICE TO CALL THE BOOK 'THE ECLIPSE OF THE RED MOON'. THE BOOK COVER BUILDS UP INTEREST FROM THE APPEARANCE. I USED A RED MOON AND RED MIST TO INDICATE DANGER AND GIVE A SENSE OF EERIENESS AT THE TOP HALF OF THE BOOK. FOR THE LOWER HALF , I MADE IT A CITY MOSTLY SHROUDED IN A SHADOW OF RED AMBIENCE, ONLY LEAVING THE TOP OF THE CASTLE UNAFFECTED, MAKING THE PERSON SEEING THE BOOK THAT IT MIGHT BE A BEACON OF HOPE. AS WELL AS THIS, I ADDED AN OUTER GLOW ON THE TITLE TO GIVE IT A MYSTERIOUS FEELING.
AS FOR THE BACK OF THE BOOK AND BLURB, I DECIDED TO ADD an image of a secluded highway, making the person reading make the situation feel surreal. furthermore, emphasising certain words by putting them in bold to entice the reader. as for chapter pages, it consists of two images showing how lifeless and dire the ordeal is for humanity , giving the sense of hopelessness. in which both the back page and chapter images are enveloped in red and empty.
additionally, i thought it would be essential to have some questions on the back of the book in white text and bold to show worry and panic about why the moon has gone to red and ensued the entire globe in a red darkness.
