Over 15,000 book covers animated!!
Animated covers get more social media engagement than static covers, increasing your chances of sales and getting word out about your book. Elements in motion drive the eye to focus on it longer as there’s more to see and because people have to linger longer, they’re more likely to retweet/share, like, reply and/or check out the book on Amazon and other sites.
Animated covers are a marketing trend that continues to become more and more popular. And eye-catching covers deserve recognition because the reality is that most people do still judge a book by its cover. It's the first thing readers see and
the first thing that makes them decide whether to check out the book or not. And since animation jumps out, having an animated cover ensures that future readers will hover over your book instead of just scrolling past it in their social media timeline.
^What do I animate &
what genres?^
^How do I work?^
-
Book Covers & 3D Mockups
-
Banners & Audiobooks
*If you want me to animate something else (album covers, other artwork etc), please get in touch and we’ll discuss.
*Bear in mind, I do not design book covers or 3D mockups. All files you want animated need to be provided by you.
I animate all genres except erotica and exceedingly violent horror (i.e. no images with a great amount of gore, adult content etc). The reason for these exceptions is that I cannot upload these covers per Twitter and Youtube’s rules which have put limitations on the kinds of media that can be shared.
***Please note, for this reason, all submissions are subject to approval.
I provide affordable animation prices to fit every author's budget (Due to extreme high demand and the incredible loyalty and support I have received from customers and social media followers, I am able to keep offering my animations at low rates. This way any author, at any budget, can have their book cover animated. Thank you all for making this possible).
I alaso offer a fully personalized approach by keeping in touch with the author via email or Twitter DM (whichever’s most convenient).
"Morgan delivers mind-blowing results! What an amazing way to grab the attention of readers! She grasps your vision with both hands and masterfully represents it in a beautiful animation. Working with Morgan is always an uplifting experience; she is caring and passionate with a talent for design and a drive for ultimate perfection."
- David Collins, Author of Asteria & BOOK COVER DESIGNER at DCCOVERCREATIONS.COM

This is a special design created specifically to show off your animated cover by Morgan Wright on social media.
The format is tailored so that your cover can be seen fully on social media such as Twitter & Instagram (covers, static ones especially, posted on Twitter & IG are often cut off at the top and bottom unless you click on them to open fully. This special format and design, however, ensures that your cover can be seen fully when you post).
**This is an add-on service. You must have already purchased one of the 3 "Main Cover Animation Packages" above or else purchase one of those packages in conjunction with this
Animated Cover Display package to be able to have this.
**You must provide me with your animated cover and your static cover.
**Only covers animated by Morgan Wright are eligible.
Free Static Banners
(includes 2)
COVER REVEAL VIDEOS - INCLUDES 2 Videos (1 Partial Cover Reveal + 1 Full Cover Reveal Video)
ALSO INCLUDED - 2 Free static banners for social media marketing.
These Cover Reveal Videos are specifically intended to build up anticipation for your book release and to drive sales once your book is either on sale or on preorder.
2 videos are included in this package.
1) The Partial Cover Reveal Video displays your cover wrapped in wrapping paper with only a part of your cover revealed + your title + tagline of choice + author name & one other optional line of your choice.
2) The Full Cover Reveal Video displays your FULL cover in a special mockup design + your title + tagline of choice + author name & one other optional line of your choice.
One music track will also be composed by our Music Productions Team (GeeGeeMusic) and added to both your videos. **Should you not require music on your videos, please state this in your email - price without music is €50.90.
If you only need one type of these videos (for example, solely the Full Cover Reveal), please state this in your email - the price for only 1 video is €37.90.
**You can purchase this service separately from any of the other packages on this site. If you have already purchased an animated cover from Morgan & would like to see your animation featured in the FULL COVER REVEAL VIDEO, please inform Morgan of this upon purchase & attach the cover she animated for you in the email upon her request (**Only covers animated by Morgan Wright are eligible if you want your animated cover featured.)
**You must provide Morgan with the text you'd like featured.
**If you have a .psd format (i.e. source file of your cover), we will match all the fonts from your cover itself. If you have your cover only in jpeg or png format, we will either match the fonts ourselves through a different technique or find a closely related font to feature instead so it gels with your cover.

^Terms & Conditions^
**By purchasing an animated cover/mockup/banner/audiobook/mini trailer video with me (Morgan Wright), you agree that:
-
Payment proceeds via Paypal and is made in euros regardless of your country currency as I reside in Europe. (The estimated dollar amounts seen above next to the euro prices are very rough estimations of what the euro price equals in dollars and serve only to give you a rough idea of what it would cost you in another currency in case you are unaccustomed to seeing euros. Paypal’s exchange rates may differ so the cost in dollars may differ as well. If you wish to know what it would cost in your country currency- even though payment is made in euros- you should check with Paypal).
-
I do not guarantee sales, likes or retweets as a result of this service.
-
The fee is non-refundable.
-
I do not design book covers or book mockups. You must provide me with the files you want animated.
-
There are revision limits per cover, banner, audiobook or mockup to ensure that a clear vision of what the author is looking for is conveyed from the start. There are 2 revisions per cover/mockup/audiobook/banner/mini animated cover trailer video. If you would still want revisions after the 2nd revision, €3.95 extra would be needed per added revision. In 99% of all cases, you won’t need more than 1 revision. There are no revisions for the extra free gift included/animated cover displays/animated cover ads/animated cover sneak peeks or music packages.
-
I maintain the right to send you promotional and/or new offers regarding Book Cover Animations via email.
-
Whenever possible, credit should always be given and the animator should be listed as Morgan Wright or @byMorganWright.
-
You are allowed to use any of the final 2 variations I provide you with and if you like both variations, you are welcome to use both (in this case, you would get 2 animations for the price of 1 which is my ideal scenario).
-
You are allowed to use the final, approved animation(s) to promote your work anywhere (social media, blogs, amazon etc) except in trailers or other video-type mediums that are not made by myself, Morgan Wright. Should you want to use the animation(s) in a trailer/video-type medium made by a third party, first permission needs to be acquired from me via email. (Also, no alterations are to be made to any animated covers by Morgan Wright. The only person allowed to alter the animated cover(s) in any way, before or after final approval, is myself).
-
If your book is not yet published or you have not yet done your cover reveal, inform me of this via email & I will not share your animations anywhere until you have given me permission via email to do so.
-
If you are purchasing a combo package of Cover Animation + Audio or a Mini Animated Cover Trailer Video, you are granted a non-exclusive license to the personalized music (the musicians may reuse this in other projects at will). Your use of the music is limited only to the final project video you are provided with (you may not copy the music and reuse it in another video or form). There are no revisions for music. Whenever possible, credit for the music should be given to GeeGee Music Productions or @GeeGeeMusicPro.
