What does your cover look like? I have no idea what to do for the back

My cover is one the very first Blu-Ray covers I designed for myself. as such it is very.... very... very basic. It gets the job done, but it's not as good as I could have made it, The back is rather plain and amateurish. Also my cover is for all the live action movies from 1966-2012
But here it is anyway... be gentle.

The best advice I can give you for doing a back cover, is to look at some official back covers for movie collections. That should give you somewhere to draw inspiration at the least.

What he said, that's what I started doing. Although I still go minimalist on logos and official text stuff.

Problem with it is it seems to only cover the Tim Burton film despite the intention; there are no elements on there that reflects the 60s, Schumacher or Nolan incarnations.

I never intended for it to reflect all eras, I just loved the simplicity of the poster art from the '89 batman movie and found a piece of gorgeous art that I thought blended nicely what I had planned for the back.

At the time I was more concerned with function over form, and the function was simply to save space. This set managed to eliminate eight 12mm cases and combine them into one 25mm case. That was what I was after at the time.

Besides I think the bat symbol is more than enough to explain what it contains.

It's a cover I intend to revisit later, but mostly to change the back, I am very happy with the front as it came out just how I had hoped.

You guys asked for it and here it is, The Blade Trilogy,
made to go with my Marvel Collection covers.
This is now available for download on my blog.

Anyone have a scan of any Scream Factory double feature cover? I need one for reference in some custom covers I am going to have done

Revolver

Here's something you may not be interested in. It's for a movie almost nobody likes, but one of my favorites. The studio cover for this is actually well done, but ruined by a Pete Hammond quote.

Sony's cover for The Last Dragon is pretty terrible. I took some liberties with the one sheet art and layout, but, well, there it is.

Doodling on the computer this morning, just browsing posters and artwork and came up with this...

Reminds of the VHS, which I was always fond of.

Yeah, back when they more commonly used one-sheet art for the video release.

I can't believe how much I actually miss that tradition.

Very nice; looks like something WB would actually produce for such a collection. I'd use it myself, but I can't bring myself to buy either "Returns" or "& Robin".

Phase 1:

have you considered doing another cover for just all the bonus material, Iron man 1,2 Hulk, Avengers (target), and the Bonus dic from the tesseract case.

Honestly it doesn't really matter to me.

I bought a set of ten one-disc cases and I would like to store my Twin Peaks box set in them, seeing as how horrific the disc storage system is with the Entire Mystery box.

Even if I could only find one Twin Peaks cover image to use for each of the cases, I would be happy with that.

I need some feedback on this work-in-progress of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I want to know if i'm heading in the right direction with this cover, as I may do something similar for the rest of the Star Wars Saga.

Hubunkey · 08-31-2015, 09:37 AM

Anyone have a double feature cover for Billy Madison & Happy Gilmore?
