《紀錄片當代讀本》是由英國權威學者布萊恩.溫斯頓主編的重要指南,涵蓋了全球專家學者的文章,介紹紀錄片的歷史、未來、製作概覽以及其在跨領域學科和藝術中的貢獻。
封面設計以幾何色塊拆解、重疊和拼貼紀錄片documentary的縮寫「DOC」,創造開放的虛實空間,象徵紀錄片的多元觀點和自由性。
而裝幀設計選擇以裸背穿線膠裝方式呈現,保留本書作為教科書的實用性及閱讀性;讓書頁可以完全攤平,同時使用軟硬適中的紙張作為封面,便於手持翻閱。線膠裝的穿線顏色選擇與封面、內頁相同的螢光綠,營造視覺統一感。
關於內頁設計,以非線性排列的方式設計頁面兩側的章節標題。從書口處觀看,標題彷彿流動的線條,呼應了紀錄片中時間的流動性。此外,於每篇文章的開頭及結尾運用隨機出現的漸層線條,帶出時間的痕跡。再,手動斟酌調整因中英混排而產生閱讀空間的不平衡,維持閱讀延續性。
總體而言,希望透過設計傳達紀錄片的特性的同時,亦兼顧教科書的實用性和友善的閱讀體驗。

"The Documentary Film Book" is an important guide edited by renowned British scholar Brian Winston, covering articles from global experts and scholars. It explores the history, future, production overview, and contributions of documentaries in interdisciplinary studies and the arts.     
The cover design features geometric blocks deconstructing, overlapping, and assembling the abbreviation "DOC" for documentary, creating an open space that symbolizes the diverse perspectives and freedom of documentaries.
However, the binding design adopts a naked-spine thread binding method to preserve the practicality and readability of the book as a textbook. This allows the pages to be fully spread out, while the cover is made of a moderately soft and hard material for easy handheld reading. The thread used for the binding matches the fluorescent green color of the cover and interior pages, creating visual unity.
For the interior design, chapter titles on the sides of the pages are arranged in a non-linear manner. When viewed from the book's edge, these titles appear as flowing lines, echoing the fluidity of time in documentaries. Additionally, random gradient lines are used at the beginning and end of each article to evoke the traces of time.
Overall, the design balances conveying documentary characteristics with practicality and a friendly reading experience.
