Finished Album Cover




This was the final outcome of my album cover design project. I went with the band 'shark speed' (see top left hand corner of the front cover), the title 'the world is not a cold dead place' and record label 'fly records' (see bottom left hand corner of the back cover). The record label logo is an etching which was the first print process that I used and the second process I used was the laser cutting for the front cover photograph. For the title I designed an 'alive' world- a world with lots of life on it- children, animals, tress etc but then cut it out of very plain white mount board. I then photographed it in a grave yard (you can see the grave stones in the background of the photos) but I photographed it with lots of living flowers in the fore ground. I was going to produce it in colour but in the end decided that black and white worked pretty well. I'm not quite sure what the end outcome is.. is the world a cold dead place? You decide...

Album cover design ideas






These are some of the ideas that I experimented with for band names 'shark speed' and 'daisy chainsaw' and for record labels 'hell cat records' and 'alternative tentacles records'. I particularly like the 'alternative tentacles' one but I think perhaps over all I was a little bit too literal with my designs!

The World Is Not A Cold Dead Place









This was a module that we did on 'print processes' and 'laser cutting' the brief was to design an album cover. We had to choose from a list of album titles, band titles and record labels provided and produce an album cover using at least 2 of the print processes that we had learnt to use at the beginning of that module. These photos were taken for the album title 'the world is not a cold dead' place using a mount board laser cut out that I had made.
