Call for artist/designer for paid freelance job to create a paperback book cover that requires knowledge of Photoshop and InDesign for the design and layout of a paperback book cover (front cover, spine, back cover), and creation of file for printer.
The cover has to follow the format of two previous two books, so there is little new design–only the placement/layout/color of the title might be different. However, there is no template file, so you will be required to create the cover from scratch using InDesign, matching the old covers.
A front cover image has to be created from photos and then converted to a painting-like picture. The image would be of a plane with someone going on from a stairway or of the plane with backpacks etc on the tarmac. The author has some photographs but you would have to make sure the final image is copyright free.
The author, who lives in Seattle, would prefer to work with someone local and preferably have a first meeting prior to December 5, but a January deadline should be fine.
