Roald Dahl Book cover design

From a brief I found over summer about re-illustrating James and the Giant Peach I have re writen my own which involves re-illustrating 5 of Roald Dahl Books. I have chosen to do.

James and the Giant Peach


The BFG


Fantastic Mr Fox


Jack and the Bean Stalk 


Little Red Riding Hood



I havn't started the brief yet but have been looking at book covers that have already been done, mostly by Quitin Blake. For this brief I am not sure it is good to look at things already done as I want to come up with something on my own and not be influence by other book covers that have already been done.

Open publication - Free publishing - More book covers

After I have created the book covers I would like to make a sleeve and a window display to advertise the new book cover. I would also like to make and event where adults can bring their children along, and spend a day listening and acting like characters from the books. The would be able to dress up and then they could buy the books at the event.
