How to make a cover for the London Review of Books, with Jon McNaught

Jon McNaught has created more than forty covers for the LRB as well as artwork for books, diaries, posters and campaigns. In this film he takes us through the process of making a cover, from inspiration, sketches and photographs to creating the final artwork using various techniques and materials including watercolours, ink, chinagraph pencil, masking fluid, tape and scissors. He talks about what makes a good cover and where he looks for inspiration, and why the everyday scenes he captures can take on unexpected significance when they finally appear beneath the masthead.
