Added Text | Art_204 / GRAPHIC DESIGN

First a challenge…

Text Additions for your respective book covers…

In design there are always additions and tweaks that occur in the midst of a project. In order to get you thinking along this line, at times information will be “added” to a project in order to see how you contend with it, and how you are able to adapt your design.
One note — I want you to concertedly think about how this text might impact or further your design. Don’t just work in a void — you’ve got to be ready to adapt and evolve as a designer. Think about how this text might enhance your project as it currently stands.
Consider the following…

If you are doing “Monster Waves,” please add the following text:

Author’s Names: Slater Gomez and Dakota Hoffmeister

Text for the interior leaves:

Monster Waves: A Chronicle of Humans vs. Nature is an incredibly vivid account of the wild relationship between man and water. From the epic skyscraper-sized waves of Hawaii and Northern California, to the massive barrels of the South Pacific, Gomez and Hoffmeister present a frightening exploration of the history and science behind the biggest waves. What drives these primeval forces? Is there a trend towards bigger and bigger waves? Are tsunamis like the one that struck Japan soon to be a reality in other parts of the world? Could a rogue wave ruin your day at the beach? Monster Waves presents the visuals that will make you think twice before getting into the bathtub.

“Humans may be made up of 70% water, but when it comes to survival, these waves have it out for us.”
– Rob Zim, Pro Surfer

“Not quite as wild as an actual wave, but the closest most people will get. Definitely a sweet ride through the history of big wave riding.”
– Bernie “Burn-Dog” Kim, Five-Time Big Wave Champion

“These waves are so epic and powerful, they dwarf anything man could conceive.”
– Dr. Susan Hill, Oceanographer, UC San Diego

“One word: Epic!”
– Martin Shaper, Surf Legend

If you are doing “Monsters of Rock” please add the following text:

Author’s Names: Nigel Hawthorne and Dylan Campbell

Text for the interior leaves:

Monsters of Rock: The Sounds the Shook the Earth is a wildly entertaining tour de force uncovering the mind-blowing, ear-bleeding, vomit-inducing, decibel shattering music that formed a generation. Going beyond ten, to eleven, and further, the stunning visuals presented here pulse with the sights, the smells, and the sounds of the biggest bands in rock. Is there something primal that drives humans to these deafening sounds? How does the human ear actually work, and does louder music actually sound better? What was the loudest concert of all time? All of these questions are answered in the only book ever to require earplugs for viewing.

“Beware: The visuals alone in this book may cause hearing loss.”
– Mick Hendrix, Lead Guitarist, The Damn Tarantulas

“This wasn’t the golden age of rock, it was the dynamite age.”
– Gina Mather, Rolling Stone

“The human ear is capable of withstanding only a certain volume of sound before the eardrum completely and irreparably ruptures. Clearly for those who really rock, life goes on.”
– Dr. Warren Hatch, SUNY Stony Brook

“What?”
– Herb Hempstead, Singer

If you are doing “It’s Alive” please add the following text:

Author’s Names: Kenneth T. Manchester and Ellen J. Smith

For the interior leaves:

It’s Alive: How Biology Will Create the Monsters of our Nightmares is a firsthand account of the dark side of biology. With the simple trigger of a few genes, the tweak of DNA, or the slight alteration of neuronal circuitry, what seems fantasy may become reality in the very near future. Human-animal hybrids, a return of the dinosaurs, and genetically modified killer plants are only the start. Exploring the depths of science, Doctors Manchester and Smith present a lively account of what they call the “line in the sand,” the point where there really is no going back to life as we know it.

“We may not see Darwin’s evolution unfold in our lifetimes, but this book compellingly explores how a new manmade evolution has already started to change everything around us.”
– Dr. Chester Natham, University of Southern California

“It’s true that scientific exploration has advanced civilization in countless ways, but as Drs. Manchester and Smith can attest, perhaps there are limits to where we should boldly proceed.”
– Dr. Mariah C. Bennett, Oklahoma State University

“Eye-opening and truly frightening. The worst really is yet to come; worse than anything I could have imagined!”
– Milford Barnes, Best-Selling Science Fiction Author

“You’ve been warned: Don’t read this book before you go to bed at night.”
– Jessica Glover, Award Winning Special Effects/Makeup Artist
