To start the design process i created the above designs to experiment with representation of the story. The top design uses bold text to create an impact on the page, and uses a bullet hole for the letter ‘o’. This represents the brutality of the murder and the pain the family suffered. The silhouette of knife creates a cut in the page and also represents the murder of the family. This design is very basic as it has not been fully developed but i think the combination of the knife and the bullet holes is a lot for the front cover. The design underneath is a representation of the file interviews that capote did with harper lee from people about the murder. The bold type is in a stamp like font that i used to make the file look as realistic as possible. I choose to use a family photo at the top of the cover to make the design more personal to the family who were victims of the brutal murder.
From these design's i will experiment further with the bold use of type and also try to include a larger more impactful photo of the family to make the design more personal.
