Record Sleeves











Ryan and I went to Jumbo records to take some photo's of record sleeves. At this point I was unsure which song I'd be choosing to design for, so I picked a range of sleeves that cover a range of genres that somewhat covered the genres of Black Sabbath, Elbow, Jake Bugg and Lorde, which were the 4 which I'd narrowed my choice down to initially.

The main thing I notice about the imagery (given that Secret 7 doesn't allow text) is that it tends to be very dark with photography used as apposed to vector images which is something I picked up on in my last bit of research. Obviously the research on the sleeves themselves is much much more appropriate and applicable to the project than the flyers, and so this is the research I'll be taking note of given the contradictory nature of it compared to the flyer research.
