Description

For this project, you have been given the task

to design the vinyl cover of your playlist.

Here's how you will approach this:

1. Make your playlist with a general theme in mind like: lounge, party, coffee shop, relaxing music

2. Think of the artists you'd like to include in your playlist (they have to belong to a genre type)

3. Next sketch out the album art (vinyl cover design) for two artists out of that playlist.

• Keep a moodboard at hand too

4. In the class, based on critique, you'll pick out one sketch to finalize.

• Keep typography in mind.

Final pieces will be inked and colored using rendering techniques taught in class.
