Redesigning a cover for the book The Talented Mr. Ripley made me challenge myself to find an exceptionally unique solution to this project. I kept my viewer in mind by wanting to make them feel that the cover reveals clues about what happens in the story. I implemented foreshadowing, and many motifs found throughout the novel. Examples of these include the blood splatter on the head, the repeating quote, and the belly band that changes the composition of the cover and the phrase “fake somebody, real nobody”. The latter example represents the ever changing personality and identity of the main character, Tom Ripley.
