Art of the album cover:

What
needs to be on the album cover?
-
The artist
How
to decide what goes on the album cover?
-
Sit down with artist and discuss ideas behind the
album
-
Go off and do several sets of visuals and present
them
The
primal scream: Covers I’ve created will start with a conversation about
references, everything from world events to underground films, punk fanzines,
pop art, early video art, Italian horror films in amongst these contrasting
things certain themes or images will start to emerge which can be twisted
around to fit together
Although
now a days there is less album covers due to people downloading music on ipods
it is still important for the overall packaging to have an album cover.
