Project Description

The purpose of this piece was to better explain what the TEDPrize is, and the impact it has. Ted wanted to focus on connections made in the community and how that made the recipient's wish come true. The idea for the piece was to show how these wishes change the world. The die cut circles on the cover represent a new world being created by images of the TEDPrize wishes being layered on top of each other. We were able to kind of do the power of 10 where we start with space and zoom in to individual people at the end. The last part of the circle, the red dot, is a description of the prize.

Production Lesson(s)

The biggest challenge was to stay true to our initial idea and stay in the budget. We originally had a heavier cover, but the price was about $2,000 over what we could spend. The solution was to have a self cover so the entire book could print at once. We were able to save by not having to set up the press to run the cover separately. ”
