BOOK DESIGNER DAVID MORATTO
I’m a book designer living in Toronto, Canada. I started out at a very young age enthralled in art which has always played a big part in my life. I then found myself in the graphic design field as a desktop publisher and graphic designer utilizing my art creatives which I love doing.
Chance came along and I was given the opportunity to work in a company for a few years as a full time book designer which I immediately had a connection with and passion for and have never looked back.
Each book design is unique in style and subject matter and I’ve had the honor of helping many authors fulfill their dream of a published book. Collaboration with the author is the best part through out the creative process and the ride from start to finish.
I obtained my diploma in advertising and graphic design from Humber College in 1989 and my diploma in desktop publishing from University of Toronto in 1992.
Currently I’m writing and illustrating a science fiction novel and have a few personal book design projects that I’m working on to implement.
THE SOFTWARE THAT I USE
- Adobe InDesign for page layouts
- Adobe Photoshop for images
- Adobe Illustrator for vector artwork; such as book ornaments or trim (borders), charts, graphics, etc
- Adobe Acrobat for packaging page layouts into printable PDFs
