Lord of the Flies meets Misery?
The Little Crew of Butchers is a psychological journey that finds protagonist Lucas Baird held captive by a gang of demented young boys in a small town off the coast of Long Island. The children, directed by a furious 12-year-old, turn savage, heaping hideous acts of torment and cruelty upon Lucas.
The cover was designed to represent the duality of the story: Lucas running from adulthood mistakes that eventually lead to his unfortunate capture and the reckless emotion the children exhibit, fueled by infighting with their young tyrannical leader. I wanted to avoid displaying actual violence on the cover but instead focus on the internal fury that runs through each character.")

The main objective was to transmit in the imagery the concepts of “Honor”, “Duty” and “Sacrifice” within an atmosphere of combat. However, I also kept some high contrasts and a certain dark style that gives a sense of mystery and suspense, as it is needed in thrillers’ covers.
It was also requested to connect the title and subtitle, forming a unique block, as well as a lettering that could convey a sense of “toughness”. The choice of the font and the scratched steel texture helped to achieve that goal.")

In this story the detective is ready to take a vacation, after high-stakes situations and near-death experiences. But those wishes are cut short when his past returns to haunt him, in the form of a Russian mobster.
Instead of showing a real scene, I decided to create a representation of the plot in which the story takes place. In the image Edgar Vincent is just ready to enjoy his deserved vacations… when the events of his past come to spoil his plans. That is why he is looking back in the direction of what is a visual representation of Russia.
This idea is also associated with the choice of the color Red. The vibrant tone creates impact and a certain mystery, reinforced by the contrast of intense lights and shadows.")

The diagonal form of the buildings gives a great depth to the cover, also helped by the running man and the strong light at the end of the street. This contrast between zones of light and shadow was made to create impact and transmit a sense of mystery.
Since the story has to do with the malicious, mesmerizing effect of a presence on social media, the author wanted to include some kind of electronic device (mobile, tablet or computer).
However, I also added some details as a watermark, like the circular grid with the zero and one numerals, in order to have a certain \"technological atmosphere\".
Another of the requests was to create the design with a blue/gray palette with gold highlights, since this is a color combination that can attract the public of this book genre.")

Wir Im Wandel – “we are changing” in German – is a collection of nearly fifty short stories, each told from the unique perspectives of characters who often appear multiple times throughout the book in varying roles.
Every story shares a common theme of disturbance and emphasizes how differently these characters respond to the events that are unfolding. What do they agree on? Where do they refuse to find common ground? This is what the author wants to explore.
The jacket cover features a magnified, wrap-around portrait of dilated blood vessels in the human eye. The vessels move from the back of the cover to the front, weaving through the title like a visceral attack on the typography.
I wanted the cover art to feel like a living, breathing monster on the verge on consuming itself. Each element growing, shifting, shrinking and growing again. Blood pumping through the landscape. A wicked fight for survival and answers.")

An international crew embarks on a flight to Mars, when they’re awaken by the emergency protocol. The chaos and destruction reign on board, making impossible to complete the mission to their final destination... or even to return to Earth. The journey into nothingness begins.
Apart from requiring a spaceship with a specific shape, damaged and with visible signs that would represent the unfortunate events, the client also wanted to convey the impression that the ship was drifting and completely lost in space.
Therefore, I decided to place it in a certain way (in the diagonal) in order to give a sense of instability, to better represent its critical situation while is being destroyed and outside of its route.
The effects that I gave to the title also reinforce that destruction, where the metal appears scratched and burned.

Edgar Vincent, however, cannot sit still while this injustice is carried out in the name of his partner, and decides to hit the mean streets of Chicago to track his buddy down, playing detective against the orders of his superiors, facing Chicago’s more sinister characters in the process.
My idea was to transmit that dark and dangerous atmosphere by showing the silhouette of the detective in one of the Chicago streets.

“Inside Psycho” is the first season of a newly-launched podcast that will examine the making of classic motion pictures, each season dedicated to a different film. “Inside Psycho” focuses on Alfred Hitchcock’s iconic 1960’s “Psycho.”
The design is a fun throwback to the film’s thrilling and genre-defining title card sequence with the show name emblazoned in striking letters above a choppy, haphazard illustration of the terrifying Bates home.
When creating art for iTunes, it’s important to remember the variety of sizes the design will be scaled to depending on the setting. This design was created at the max 3000x3000 pixels but because of its prominent lettering and high-contrast graphics it works excellently when reduced to smaller variations like the 220x220 pixels used on podcast pages or the 55x55 pixels shown in playlists (as displayed in the bottom right of this presentation).")
