Substantial Brief - Secret 7 - Clearest Blue 2

I always forget to take screen shots when I work on my laptop and I always say it in my blogs and I never learn and it drives me crazy. But I used lines on pen tool to create a geometric style face traced on top of the lead singer's face. I knew I wanted to include one of my weird textures that I produced, so used that as the background.


I then put the two together, but I wasn't sure about it. I thought maybe the faces were too bright and stood out a bit too much with the background, so changed it to match with the peachy orange. I then remembered in the lyrics that they say 'halfway' a lot, so thought I should incorporate this into my design. So I put the shape bang in the middle and the faces in the middle of the shape and the edge.


I really like the aesthetics of this album cover, but I'm not sure if you'd be able to guess what song it was for as it might not seem relevant. But I think if i saw this album cover on the shelf then I would be drawn to it, which is what the brief is asking for. I do also think the two colours work really well to compliment each other which is why I think this design works.
