So this week we were challenged to make our own album cover, with the help of Pete's blog and his genius steps that made the whole process rather entertaining..
My randomly generated Wikipedia article was 'Tom Forrester' which to be honest, I was quite happy with due to it being a name and therefore easily reflective of a band/artist
My album title, according to the last four words on this quotation website; 'eat until he eats them' which I'm not entirely sure how I feel about, but we'll just pass it off as 'quirky indie'
Having to choose the third image on flickr caused me to end up with a cat in an alley way as my album artwork.
This is my final album artwork and overall I'm actually quite pleased with it, somehow the image of the pouncing cat reflects the album title 'eat until he eats them' perhaps suggesting some sort of evil hungry pouncing cat. This task has highlighted how easy it is to produce an album cover if you are creative as to where you look for inspiration, having not had followed Pete's random steps, I would be for sure still thinking long and hard over what theme of image to use. It's also made me aware how important branding is and ensuring that although this task was random, that our final product does reflect our music sound and audience we are targeting.
