| Summary: | 碩士 === 台南應用科技大學 === 應用設計研究所 === 100 === When graphics become a kind of social form, in the resultant impact, its scope of application and methods of making drawings will become more extensive, following the advances in technological development. A single innovation of drawing, however, is rarely seen. Graphics have a unique and powerful visual ‘language’ style; its composition is abundant and complex, and it has often been used on the cover designs for books dealing with fantasy literature. Its modes of expression have transformed the world of the painter and it offers the scope of greater expression in regard to what the artist wants to say.
This study aims to understand the drawing cover design of fantasy literature books. Firstly, related literatures and samplings were collected and analyzed by using content analysis for composition and layout of the sample cover design after sample list. It takes an individual-sampling strategy of fantasy graphics and colours which infered that the main layout method is on the cover design of fantasy literature books. The study explored that whether the contained meaing of the graphics on the cover design of fantasy literature books corresponds to the outline frame of books and has the fuctions to express the plot by using textual analysis and comparing research sampling of graphic.
The results showed that the cover design of fantasy literature books is usually used the style of unique calligraphy and darkness color. The results showed that transmit of graphics showed that if the main role of the story or its relevant groups or opposing characters can transmit a simple and clear message, then they would comprise the significant design of the cover. In principle, part of the contents or main role and animal relationship will be taken as the main editing, even if the cover design is based on multiple factors or is in an abstract form which cannot convey the message to the readers. It is hoped that the conclusions can provide reference, as a new idea, for the cover designers of the publishing companies for the fantasy literature books.
