All New PUBLISHING UNIVERSITY: November 4-6, 2007
Pub 101
Speakers: Cindy Kiple and Anne Gerth
Session Title: Product Packaging: Design and Production
A book with outstanding content is far more likely to appear in stores and catalogs if it bears a striking cover. Selecting the right cover could not be more important, and this session will help attendees see how this is done. Attendees will also learn the inner workings of a production department, as an excellent book that has a first-rate cover but is poorly produced will suffer in the marketplace.
