Into the Black - Album Cover
LP Album Cover Redesign | Fall 2023
Objective | Redesign an LP album cover for an album of my choosing. Using photography and type to create an LP sleeve with a front and back design, with complementing A and B side labels for the LP record. Making type and photography work harmoniously together.
Aesthetic Perfection is an electronic-industrial band and their music is very harsh sounding. I wanted to capture the sound and tone of the band through photography and lighting.
Initial Inspiration
The lighting is what I wanted to play with the most in this project, to show how the shadows cast on the face, eyes, and body can invoke the feeling of fading into darkness.
The Photoshoot
During the photoshoot, I played with different camera angles for the lighting. I wanted to experiment with how the shadows revealed certain features of my model's face and body.
Exploring Type
I experimented with different typefaces, ranging from more decorative to more simple. Simple type allowed for the photography to speak louder focusing on the imagery.
Final Solutions
