What went into it

Let the contrast between the photos tell the story.

01

The job

The cover needed to show contrasting emotions and still be readable at thumbnail size.

02

Audience

Viewers interested in psychology, childhood behaviour, and mental health education.

03

Known limits

I don’t have the original brief or performance figures for this project.

Key decisions

Why it looks this way.

How the main subject and supporting images share the frame.

  1. 01

    Colour and mood

    Warm colour and black-and-white treatment separate the two childhood images.

  2. 02

    The presenter

    The central portrait connects both sides of the cover.

  3. 03

    Room for the title

    A single band along the bottom keeps the headline clear at small sizes.
