What cover needs to be developed:       

It is necessary to create two almost identical covers for a self-study guide in English, consisting of two books. The background (design, colors) of the materials should be the same. The difference is the numbering 1 (book), 2 (book) and the description of the content of the books.


Formulate the main task:  

The main task is to create a realistic, bright illustration in Ukrainian style, inspiring the study of the English language.


Portrait of the target audience:  

The self-study guide is aimed at adults (Ukrainians) aged 14 and older who can purchase it online from anywhere in the world.


If a cover for a book is being developed, please specify the title, author, and its theme:  

Title of the self-study guide: English for Ukrainians. Other inscriptions for the cover will be sent separately. This is a guide, a self-study book in English.


Classification of the publication: 

  • textbook


Preferred color scheme:   yellow, blue, red


Preferred design style:   

Realistic


What should be depicted on the cover? 

 A Ukrainian girl, landmarks of English-speaking countries


What mandatory elements must be on the cover? 

 A Ukrainian girl, preferably with a braid


What should be the ratio of text to graphics on the cover? 

 Illustration - 60-70%, the rest - text


Is the cover being created for the first time or are you updating an existing one? (if updating, please attach an image of the existing cover) For the first time 


What should definitely be avoided when creating the cover - what colors, images, themes?

Update #1

The cover must reflect the title, meaning it should have a Ukrainian theme and must include an image that conveys the idea that with knowledge of the English language, a person (specifically a Ukrainian) can LIVE FREELY and SUCCESSFULLY in many countries around the world. Additionally, the colors and image must be BRIGHT and carry POSITIVITY and OPTIMISM (the face should be smiling and inspired). On the back of both books, there should be a short information about the author, a signature, and a photo (I will send separately).

Update #2

I like the idea of the photo - a Ukrainian girl with a braid against the backdrop of buildings in English-speaking countries, but it lacks brightness and optimism.

Update #3

The purpose of the cover image is to convey the IDEA that knowledge of the English language is extremely important, a person feels freer in English-speaking countries and has more chances for success.  An image of a Ukrainian girl in close-up is more suitable for a women's magazine...
