I created the cover art for My Top List: Movies, the first in a series of interactive journals. This one is for movie lovers.

As passionate cinema enthusiasts, The From Now On Design Studio wanted to offer a fun and engaging way for others to reflect on and share their thoughts about films. This book invites users to document their personal movie experiences, making it a unique blend of personal journal and shared experience for all film lovers. The studio, FROM NOW ON, was built around the idea of creating thoughtful and interactive experiences like this one.

Project Title: My Top List: Movies

Client: From Now On Studio

Date: Nov 2023

My Role

My primary role was to design a user-friendly guide that could function as either a personal movie journal or a collaborative tool to share with others. I focused on making the design simple yet striking, ensuring the series would be cohesive while allowing each book to have its own identity.

Process

  • I began by researching book design with a focus on creating a series, analyzing how to maintain consistency while giving each book its own flair.

  • We developed a rough concept around the themes we wanted to explore and expanded on it, experimenting with layouts and visual styles.

  • As the content of the book evolved, I refined the design to align with its tone and function.

  • I designed a cover that reflects the idea of a creative, retro-style textbook—bold yet timeless.

  • Collaborating closely with my partner, we polished the design for publication, ensuring it met both our creative and practical goals.
