Full Process
My choice for the assignment was to produce a design centered around a singer/songwriter called Dermot Kennedy, whose songs were generally pop and hip-hop. Then, a list of the artist's songs was compiled, and a mood board was made for inspiration in the development of the design style. The making of my rough sketches was guided by focusing on the concept of the artist to convey the vision of his music. On Adobe Illustrator, the album's cover, the record's labels, and the digital playlist cover were designed and revised together to use the same elements for stylistic consistency. Many elements were included to provide some visual authenticity. Not just the illustrated content, but things like the title and song list. As well as the copyright information and fake barcode. So, while they needed the same style, the different pieces also needed their content to be organized uniquely.
A college project in “Package Design” class to design a physical cover, labels, and a digital cover for a make-believe album of a real artist or band.
