Production Concept: Putting together the book

At the start of the unit we were prepared to have a lot of our information in a leather bound book which would include the script and other information about what we have done in this unit. Unfortunately that wasn't the case, due to lack of preparation and the script becoming a bit longer to actually finish, we were not able to have all of the components for the leather bound book ready in time. However we decide that we would have the script bound separately, and the book would be made through different means.

To create the book we uploaded all of our work into in-design and had it professionally printed at the campus in the form of a large booklet printed on A3 glossy paper. With this we created our own cover which featured a small red pentagram and the Cthulhu title not too far above it, this was to give the book a sense of demonic iconography, whilst the small Cthulhu title at the top made it look a bit more professional and branded. After being printed this was, stapled, cut down and trimmed and has turned out beautifully.

I am slightly disappointed that we couldn't actually get the book printed with a hard back cover in time but that is due to myself and the group being slightly under prepared. On the other hand the book has come out really well  and I am pretty proud of it as well as the information inside!
