Visit from Art Director Joann Hill
Joann Hill, Art Director at Disney-Hyperion Books (and K mom) visited Sofia's 4/5 class in the library to talk about the production of book jacket design. She treated us to a presentation of typeface all around us--in signage for restaurants, ice cream trucks, and other businesses, as well as the process of book jacket design, from concept to final product. We learned that it is a collaborative effort and the jacket design usually goes through many changes and edits before a final is selected.
