Sad Short Story Classroom Teacher Frustration Pot Blackboard Guard

Design Concept

Visual Composition:

A gloomy classroom scene as the background, featuring a large, imposing guard figure in the foreground standing near a blackboard. The teacher, with a visibly sad and tired face, is seated next to the guard. A cracked and slightly glowing pot labeled "Frustrations" sits on the teacher’s desk, exuding faint smoke, symbolizing emotional and mental struggles. The classroom walls are worn and slightly dim to amplify the melancholic atmosphere.

Design Typography:

Main title in "Merriweather Bold" font, styled with subtle cracks and shadowy gradients to echo the theme of misfortunes. Subtitle in "Raleway Light" italic font for a modern yet somber tone. Author’s name in a clean sans-serif font, "Roboto Regular," placed at the bottom of the cover.

Design Layout:

The title is positioned prominently at the top, spanning across the width of the book. The teacher and guard are centered in the composition, occupying the spotlight. The pot of frustrations is placed on the left foreground, near the title’s starting letters. The blackboard is behind the characters, partially visible and extending over the middle portion. The author’s name is aligned horizontally at the bottom, inside a thin opaque band, to give it separation from the visuals.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition uses contrasting elements—a domineering guard and a diminutive teacher—to symbolize struggle and vulnerability. The cracked "Frustrations" pot is a metaphorical object to illustrate the teacher's internal turmoil. Placing the teacher and guard near the blackboard conveys the educational theme, while the worn classroom backdrop adds an air of realism. The typography balances legibility with mood; the cracks and shadow in the title font signify adversity, while the clean, neutral fonts for the subtitle and author’s name maintain readability. A matte finish provides a professional and muted effect, reflecting the story's tone, while the spot UV on the pot subtly draws the reader's attention to the symbolic frustration.

The backdrop of the room includes subtle scientific and technological elements (e.g., a globe, an atom diagram in the corner, or faint circuitry patterns). The color palette is warm, featuring browns, greens, and chalk-white, paired with pops of vibrant color from the students’ attire to evoke a dynamic, learning atmosphere.

The division emphasizes the duality of her experiences, connected by a faint, glowing blur at the vertical split, symbolizing emotional transitions.
