The Black Women Hair - Book Cover Design

I choose this book for a very particular reason.  I read this book and how the character Venus Johnsons trying to blend into American "corporate America".  Every little black girl mother made sure her hair was press and comb looking great so hair is straight and not showing the real texture of the hair.

It shows the relationship she is having with her hair.  Day in day night.  It's even impossible for her to keep the lies her keep her appearance with her boyfriend who she is living with.

And then finally she decides to break the cord.  Where she cuts off all her hair, of course, her mother is upset but she decides she needed to stop lying to herself and accept her hair and stop having the relationship with the hair.

I took this cover and I used the "The Role of Sketching in the Design Process."  I did you the adobe photoshop CS.  I used and the following filters which were exposed, saturated, cropping curves, hues and photo filters.  I was able to enhance the coloring of the book cover. I was trying to do laying but it was not working for me to use two types of the book cover.

M4 CP Book Cover Design - The Haunting Hill House

I choose "The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson."  I have never been into scary movies. But the thing I do like scary movies and books is the graphic colors and vibrant colors to attract the viewers.

M3 CP Awareness Poster ~ Sexual Harassment

Well, I choose sexual harassment but in a different form.  We are living in an age of sex-texting. How far can it go?  Now we work in a work environment is about the cell phone or email.

The manager can text you all hours of the night and send you sexual explicit messages. How do you respond, how can this affect my job and third do I tell my spouse or partner? 

One of the things you may be able to do.  Don't respond to sex-texting, another save the message.  When has it gotten to the point you have to protect yourself with your cell phone.  There are now organizations and groups that can help both men and women.
