Benliss, John Rush, and Rozer

Next on the list is a project I did for my 2D-Design. We were to design a series of three motifs. We could use media we wanted, but had to have a static design, a relaxed design, and a dynamic design. I chose to show those three stages using c.d. covers.

This is my static design, and It was suppose to show no movement. I used a plain type and a very simple, plain background. I made the album cover for this amazing band, Benliss. You've never heard of them? Their only the greatest band in the world. Go check out their myspace by clicking their link in my "Links" section to the right.

This next design was meant to be relaxed, showing little movement. I used what I thought to be a very clam black and white background, and chose an italicized type face to help create some movement. This is probably my least favorite out of my three designs, but I think it turned out fairly well.  The name John Rush just felt like a good musician name, and "Log Cabin Sessions" came from that fact that it looks like the man in the picture is playing in a log cabin. So there you go.

This final cover was dynamic design. I used a big, bold type and used a very active and high-speed picture in the background. I thought that using something random, like the screaming face, would help make the design more dynamic, and I think that it definitely adds to the piece. I guess the band's name is Rozer. I'm not sure how I exactly came up with that name, I just did, but I think it goes well. 

Overall, I think that my third design ended up being my favorite. This design turned out almost exactly how I imagined it, which was very exciting. I really liked this project and designing c.d. covers is something that I would love to do for my future career.

So I hope you liked these three designs and keep checking back for more. I have one more on my list to post for all to see.
