I wanted to study the designs of evocative book covers, then see if I could reproduce those designs myself, and add to them with little moments of delight to create animated cover reveals. I hope to eventually do more “editorial” animations based on book quotes, similar to TED-Ed videos. For now, I’m starting small and experimenting with style and technique.

 

This is student work. I’m not affiliated with the original creators.
