Cover Art

I have made this hand print from paint to look like the one i originally found online. This is a simply idea that i think will work really well on the cover of my minimal digipak.

Album cover ideas

Here i have found a few inspirational vinyl cover's that have given me some ideas for my own. There's a mixture of some classic album artwork such as the Pink Floyd 'Dark side of the moon' as well as some fairly abstract covers. I have still not yet decided weather i want a photo or artwork on the cover, but i do want a simplistic approach to juxtapose the song.

Album Covers

 Extreme close-up of a persons eye, an interesting idea that is eye-catching. It wouldn't be too hard to re-create the Dum Dum Girls album cover because it's photography. The only challenge might be the effects. 

 Pink Floyd 'Dark side of the moon'. This is a classic example of an album cover that has become famous purely for the graphics. Again this is a simple design but looks very effective. 

  The mars Volta - Frances the mute. This cover almost triggers confusion. Relating to the music. 

 I like the classic black and white effect on this album cover. It's almost abstract with the positioning of the beatle. 

 This particular Album cover was taken from the band who's song we are using for our video. The 'Yeah yeah yeahs' - zero. I really like the colours used for this album cover and i think the theme would fit in quite nicely with a 'dace' song.

 Frank zapper's album cover is minimal and i like the idea of simplicity. It's a contrast to his music.

Here's where i found most of the album covers...
