Print Book Cover Design
Budget: $50 – $0 USD
Hello, my Freelancing friends.
This project is for the Photoshop design of the cover for my next book, titled 'Earned in Blood: A Salute to Armed-Defense and Concealed Carry’s Greatest Lessons.'
The book must project a serious, professional image.
For a sample, you'll find attached the cover design to my previous book, IN DEFENSE OF THE HOME. I designed this cover myself, but I do not have the time or energy to work on this next book's cover - plus, I'm more interested in what kinds of concepts you will have in mind.
> I will need the original .PSD file so that I can make edits (for example, the spine thickness will change based on the completed book's page count).
> You should use the 50MB .PSD for IN DEFENSE OF THE HOME as the template - use the same exact guides / safety lines, etc.
> I'd prefer to work this project hourly, so that we can exchange in as much back/forth as will be required.
> I do not have any preferred fonts: it's totally up to you. I'm curious to see what you'll come up with.
> You will not have to write any text of course; all text will be provided.
TO MOVE FORWARD:
I'm not expecting any free design work or mock-ups. INSTEAD, what I'd like to see are links to previous book and eBook or DVD cases that you personally have done.
I will hire based on who provides the book cover samples / portfolio that I find the most appealing, so please make it easy in your proposal for me to view these.
TO DEMONSTRATE THAT YOU'VE READ THIS PROPOSAL IN ITS ENTIRETY, please begin your proposal with "Well I'll be doggoned, if it isn't my long lost brother."
;) ;)
This part is optional, but please also include whether you'd be interested in considering laying out the book in InDesign as well (she's around 350 pages).
Thank you!
Pat
