ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: How did you reach this design for the cover?
Can you walk us through the parts of your process that we see in the video?
Which steps are the crucial ones not to skip?
Our process starts with a dialogue with the team to understand what is expected.
We then work on some sketches, which is the most important step in the process.
Why choose such an intricate method, as opposed to creating the image digitally?
We love the process and we think anything hand crafted has so much soul.
We find it therapeutic and the end product is always a good surprise.
Its a labor of love!
What was the most challenging aspect of the piece?
Every piece has its own challenge.
Here we had to get the characters right.
Capturing the characters in silhouette form is always a challenge.
Color was another important aspect so we had to push ourselves.
The results are more than what we expected.
What was the most satisfying part of the process for you?
For us getting the colors right was a break through.
