06 - Cover Design Concepts

The first round of book cover designs is here! In this episode, Sam kicks things off by chatting with his wife Nicole about the two creative directions Proportion presented last time so that he can share his feedback on what’s working and what’s not, and so that they can start designing cover concepts. Sam and Nicole also discuss book titles, and thanks to the community on social media, they get down to the final option: Adventures in Disruption! Then the Proportion team, including Blake Goodwin, Paul Reiss, and Andrea Cincotta, share their first round of cover designs — 12 concepts that fit the Passion, Expertise, and Creativity brand attributes.
