Bob Dylan poster

The book design I decided to do was for Bob Dylan.  I wanted to have a 60’s feel based on stories told from the artist’s life in the 60’s with a play on words with the title. The back ground was originally a strong colored tie dye.  I added a curves effect alter the way it looked as well as some of the colors.  Then I added a Hue/Saturation layer to tone down the overbearing florescent colors. On the front cover the giant floating head is just a floating head of the artist with a clipping mask with just different color brush strokes.  I then used a dry brush filter to give the colors on the head a bit of a texture.  I used a hue saturation layer on the New York Times best seller logo to change the colors to something that flowed a bit better with the rest of the book. The back cover silhouette of the guitar man was originally a black and white photo of Bob Dylan.  I used a solid color black overlay to give it the silhouette look then added an outer glow effect, and made it a tiny big transparent.  All of the text have an outer glow added. The artist name, title, authors name on the front, spine and back cover all have a text warp added to it.
