SUMMARY: Mixed media collage album cover design for Playwr!tes single “Carrie”
OBJECTIVE: Create album artwork for an indie band for their single inspired by “Carrie” the musical. Client cited previous collage work I’ve done for their single “Baby Gumm” as creative direction.
SOLUTION: Created a mixed media collage using an iconic scene from the musical in a grungy printed style with hand lettered type and color elements using linocut relief printing.
OUTCOME: Explored linocut printing by printing all of the red accent using linocut relief printing over a digital collage that I printed and cut up and re-composited. Finished with hand lettering for the name of the record, then scanned and digitized for the final.
TOOLS: Adobe Photoshop, Linocut relief printing, Hand lettering, Analog collage and scans
