Adapting design to needs



Following mus’ advic I changed the design back to the version without opacity. This is fine because that information was duplicated with size so nothing is really lost.

I also designed a center label fe the record. This ended up being really annoying because it did it myself on illustrator ad didn’t write a script for it. This meant that the concept was a bit damaged, but perhaps in the rendering of a different kind of information a human hand is legit. All the same the strange considerations of the record label conventions and the world this record is for made the design quite hard. The track information needs to be on one side for quick reference. The world that consumes these records can quickly understand what is happening on the record, where otters would be baffled by the information layout. Anyhow the outcome is strong and works fine. What I want. I also ended up using a logo Carla made the other day for the record label logo, she didn’t even know I was thinking of calling it Good Vibes Records!!!

Then I printed in the studio. The screen didn’t work first say but the next it was all fine. The gradients were inspired by graphic equalizers and then also the purple drank of southern rap music.

Everyone keeps saying that they like it which is very nice and I’m very happy with the outcome. Rad.
