The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer

For my final project, I redesigned the cover of one of my favorite books: The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer by Jennifer Lynch.

Laura's diary begins in a very innocent tone and becomes progressively darker, ending with her murder. On the show, when her body is found, she is wrapped in plastic (in quite an iconic scene), so I wanted to include the texture in the cover, along with a human element.

I wanted the cover to showcase both the dark and troubled nature of Laura's life as well as her feminine, beauty queen, town sweetheart side. That is why I went with a pink color scheme and an ornate script for her name. The atmosphere I tried to create was eerie and dreamlike - Lynchian, if you will.

For the background, I used photographs of my hand in a trash bag, taken with my cellphone and edited in Photoshop. It was fun to experiment with household items and be resourceful.

Feedback is very much welcome! Thank you for reading :)
