Live: Breaking into Cover Design as an Illustrator (Part 1)

Tune in below on September 24th, 2024 (8 am Pacific • 11 am Eastern • 4 pm London)

As an illustrator, you have an advantage over all cover designers who don’t have your flair for drawing: you can create the perfect art for a book. But nailing the perfect layout and typography to go with it is another story!

Join our two-part webinar on Breaking into Cover Design as an Illustrator and discover how you can take your creativity to the next level and boost your income by expanding into cover design. Tim Byrne and Florian Garbay are two reputed Reedsy designers with a combined 42 years of experience who’ve walked this path themselves. They will walk you through everything you need to know to succeed as a cover designer during this comprehensive two-part webinar.

In session 1 of 2, you will learn to:

• Leverage your illustration style for the right niche market
• Come up with successful cover concepts in collaboration with authors
• Identify the design tools you’ll need
• Build a compelling portfolio
• Price your illustrated cover design services

Florian and Tim will also answer your questions at the end of each session, so make sure to join the live session to ask yours. If you can’t make it, register anyway and we’ll send you the recording and a summary after the event.

We hope to see you there!
