I need an experienced graphic designer to create an inspiring and abstract book cover for "Small Town Talent." This cover design should evoke a sense of triumph, resilience, and power. The tale is about a young African-American individual who overcomes adversity to become a Division 1 basketball player, battling against stereotypes and beating the odds in a small town.
Project specifications include:
- Main Color: Black, bringing out the depth of the character and the mood of the story.
-Contrast Colors: Blue and Gold
- Key Symbol: Include an abstract representation of a basketball, subtly indicating the setting and the sport's significant role.
- Abstract Design: While the subject matter is realistic, desire a more abstract composition. This abstraction should not obscure the cover's message but rather add to its appeal and effectiveness.
Skills and experiences required:
- Graphic design expertise with a portfolio in book cover design
- Ability to work with abstract concepts and translate them into compelling visual elements
- Strong understanding of color theory
- Proficient in design software like Adobe Creative Suite
- Experience in designing for the publishing industry would be a plus!
Your task is not just to create a book cover, rather, you're helping to tell a powerful story to the world.
