Beth Walthew ‘Lovers & Liars’

Album design for Beth Walthew’s CD ‘Lovers & Liars’.

Having seen some of my work I was supplied with the three images of Beth and her musicians and given the text in a word document and told to do whatever I thought suited the artist’s style, what was wanted was a rustic feel. I used some images from old printers example book and photoshopped other images and scans to make most of the artwork. The CD tray has images behind a clear tray and a butterfly in the centre where the CD is placed.

The main album type is done with the Fontin Family. You can see the text on the CD took some time to do but worked out great! You can buy the CD here: www.bethwalthew.com

Ideas with Coke

I was playing out ideas for making an advert for Coca-Cola in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. I started off recreating their brand wave and bottle but then moved on to using world flags to make an international identity for the company all based on the same theme.

Book Cover: How Children Fail

I took the book ‘How Children Fail’ and decided to rework the covers design. I created the original heading and typeset style to pelican books in Adobe InDesign then used Illustrator to make the images. I ended with two samples that I considered strong enough using images from wikipedia re-edited, working my own images into the designs. The Original cover is below in red.

Task:
Web and Myspace design for the tribute band ‘The Rollin’ Clones’.
Being unable to use any copywrite logos or images of the The Rolling Stones I used images of the bands promotional and live photos to make posters of old tours to suggest Rock concerts and musical history.

Task:
My Final Project at University was to brand an Ethanol Fuel Company in a new way that is apart from Fossil Fuel companies but make it look traditional. In the PDF below I show the whole process of looking at modern abstract logos to visually simple brands.

Enya Boxset

Task:
In a University project I had to make a form of Hi-end packaging so I asked to do a Cd design. Due to the “high end” specification and standard the work needed I was advised to do a box set or special edition cd. After seeing the artwork for Enya’s cd Amarantine I set out to redesign it with a bigger emphasis on craft and style fitting to her past productions but also to modernise them.

I started getting images of my sketchbook and printing them off on handmade papers and watercolour styled papers. From then I would scan them in again and after cut them up, arrange them on scanner and print them off again on handmade and textured papers. Some of the distressed effects were made by hand and with Photoshop and Illustrator.
