Using AI

Because I didn’t want to cut anyone out of the photo or stretch it disproportionately, I used AI generative fill in Photoshop to extend the image vertically. This vastly extended the variety of cover options I could create, by giving me a much larger photo area to work with.

Using the AI-extended photo, I created 5 separate cover options. I experimented with gradients to add visual interest without sacrificing the clean, professional feel of the covers. I also gave the client options with different amounts of emphasis placed on the title so they could choose which area of the text to place the most impact on.

Starting Cover Design

When designing these cover options, I was given the cover draft on the far right as a starting point. I needed to include all the text and logos on the page, as well as following the brand text styles. My goal was to make it more visually interesting and feel more elevated and professional. The biggest challenge here was manipulating the cover photo into different layouts given its short and wide dimensions.
