Final Project MM
For my final project, I am going to create an album cover for an upcoming album being released by one of my favorite artists. Music is something that is very important to me and I think it will be fun to create the most important piece of artwork when it comes to music release. I will be using Photoshop and will be incorporating photo manipulation, composition, and layers into my design. My intention when doing this project is to really tap into the mind of the artist and make a cover that reflects on the music they release. Whenever I listen to an album, the album cover is what I picture in my head as I listen. That is why it is so crucial for the cover to be an accurate representation of the vibe of the album. I plan to do so through my design.
Sounds like a strong idea for your unique interests and skill sets, and it puts you into the mind of a graphic designer doing work for a client. In constructing the project, I recommend coming up with a few different sketches that exemplify diverse ways of handling the content. This is similar to the production design phase of a job in which various approaches would be delivered to the client before final production. Having a few different directions to go will help you to flesh out the strongest design idea, and the class will help by chiming in tomorrow. Looking forward!
