Objective:
The Witch of Coös is a thrilling tale of a witch, her son, and the sentient bones that reside in their basement. This one-act play by Robert Frost needed a cover and manuscript that is both print and E-pub friendly. This project focused on developing editorial design skills.
Methods:
Literature Review
Brainstorming: Sketches
Manuscript Formatting
Implementation
Solution:
After reading through the play and noting imagery that popped up consistently, the cover was develped using a button with skulls as the holes and the red string of fate being sewed through. This alludes to parts of the play without giving away the plot. The manuscript was then formatted into the classic layout of a play, and sized to be easily read digitally or in print. The E-Pub was published through InDesign.
