Video Production book needs a bold and creative cover

Mastering Video Production

Jackson Kingsley

Jackson is an award winning filmmaker who, for the last 15 years, has worked all over the globe with the likes of National Geographic, Discovery Channel, & Animal Planet. He now focuses on teaching his multidisciplinary craft to help others succeed in the ever evolving world of film and video production.

Mastering video production guides you through the filmmaking process from script to screen with easy to digest technical tips and tricks.

Aspiring filmmakers, film university students and graduates, photographers looking to bridge into film, small business owners. Creative types looking to gain an understanding of a technical skill. Ages 17-40, mostly male.

I'm looking for a cover that is: bold, aspirational, and stands out in a crowd. Less is more. The words 'Video Production' should be most prominent and if an image is used it should be there to further clarify what that book is about (a modern video camera is likely to be the most suitable thing).

I am open to any designs that are either
a) In the style of the attached mock up with a relevant background image (Note: this is a concept I like but I feel it doesn't stand out enough). or
b) Modern, bold, minimalist styles (see attached examples of Ferris and Barry).

The cover needs to have the 'Five Day Film School' logo on it as well as the authors name.
