Contest Book cover contest $30 - Restore Your Mental Health

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by 50interviews, Apr 11, 2012.

    Greetings creative community,

    The winner of this cover design contest will receive $30 (via paypal preferably).

    Here's the specifics:
    Note: NOT a 3D image - it needs to be a flat image, 800 (wide) x 1000 (tall) pixels.

    Title: Restore Your Mental Health: Proven Strategies to Live With Depression
    Subtitle: Guidebook to Fighting Depression by Loving, Giving, and Overcoming Challenges
    Author: Abigail Johnson Akingbade

    Try to incorporate the colors of the authors logo:

    Author is looking for something sleek, appealing, and eye catching that will appeal to women from their 20s to mid 30s. Any imagery/feel that has to do with depression in the sense of loving, giving, and overcoming struggles.

    Here are links to some covers the author likes to give you a feel for what she's looking for:

    1: She likes the color scheme on this book and the way it is organized the title and pictures:
    http://www.amazon.com/Smoothie-Kickstart-Health-Wellness-ebook/dp/B0055PNO1C

    2. This one is simple engaging and stands out to my eye. She likes how the picture is centered and simple but captivating.
    http://www.amazon.com/Healthy-Books-Live-Longer-ebook/dp/B006HVKYYI

    3. She likes this because it is very simple but draws your attention before even reading the title.
    http://www.amazon.com/The-New-Depression-Breakdown-ebook/dp/B007GZOYI6

    4. This picture is captivating and relates to the title. It is easy on the eyes and the cover is not dark but the color scheme is engaging.
    http://www.amazon.com/Exercise-Mood-Anxiety-Strategies-ebook/dp/B0058RTMY0

    5: The background picture floats over the title and brings a calming emotion to the mind. It is simple, organized, and not too flashy where it is spectacular.
    http://www.amazon.com/The-Depression-Cure-Program-ebook/dp/B002AWX6KC

    For the winner: I will pay for any specific stock art work that needs to be acquired for your design within reason ($30 or less). We will probably need this also set for print in the near future, and I will pay an extra $30 to the winner to modify accordingly once that decision is made.

    Thanks so much for your entries! -Brian

    Let me know, what you think and what could be improved. Tried and it looks good as book cover in 3D, but still. Let me know.
