This project was to redesign a book cover of a book that I have read. I chose to use William C. Dietz book Halo: The Flood. I chose to dispense with any images and use only text to convey the meaning of the book.

Since the main enemy of this book is called the Flood and they make a pronounce impact in the book, to all the characters involved in the book. I decided to have Flood represent feel of the book.

The main attack of the Flood is to overwhelm their opponents with their sheer numbers, and I wanted them to do it to the book. The Flood covers up 4/5 of the book and begin to take over the title of the book as well.
Now the Flood on the cover is composed of the feeling that all the character experience in this book; like fear, hatred, wrath, arrogance, and others that are found in the book.
