EDITING THE BACK TRAY

This is the image I have been working on for the image that will be at the back of the CD case. I wanted this image to continue with the black and white theme. However for the back cover I felt it would be better to have a less 3D photo. The simplicity of this image therefore works well. It also made it easier to fit in the bill board with the band picture in.

When I initially saw the picture of the band I was desperate to fit it in somewhere in the art work because it was so full of energy and movement. I initially had the whole back tray black and white, apart from that image, which was in colour. After sorting feedback I was suggested that perhaps making the image look as if it was real, I could make it fit in with the black and white sketch, and this has worked, and looks far better in my opinion.

Above is the original screen shot from the band footage.

Above is the edited image of the band performance that is in-keeping with the rest of the art work.

DESIGNING THE CD

This is a picture of the CD design for Neighbourhoods, the album which 'Up all Night' is the single for. This album was released in September 2011, but contains the same Logo created for Blink 182 back in 2003. The arrows for the Neighbourhoods CD are different to those of the original logo. After Blink 182 reformed an extra arrow was added, representing their sixth studio album. Because 'Up all Night' is the single for this album, I have made sure that the logo has 6 arrows, rather than the original 5.

This is a picture of the original CD design of Blink 182's Untitled album back in 2003, again with the smiley logo. This CD is pink because it represents a more colourful and angst ridden album. By looking at the recent Blink 182 CD's it seems like they use the same logo, but in the style of that particular album.

Because The theme of my artwork is a black and white sketch theme I have decided to bring this theme to the Logo on the CD design. This is therefore in-keeping with the theme that has been created by having the Logo on all the Cd's

DESIGNING THE BOOKLET FOR MY PRODUCT

ORGANISING SHOOTS

After I had filmed the band performance I realised I had to spend most of my filming on the story part of the video. Because I have many different actors and crew needed on different days and in different locations I decided to create call sheets to organise who was needed when.

AvA making the video for 'Anxiety'

The band 'Angels & Airwaves' with Tom Delonge from Blink 182, have released a video for the making of their music vid 'Anxiety'. In this they talk about playing the song twice as fast, with the band performing twice as fast. When this is put in to real time, the footage has an amazing slow motion effect. This gave me the idea to add some slow motion to my band performance in my own music video.
