Bon Iver Album Cover Redesign
Course: Professional Design Practice // October 2016
Objective: Choose an artist or artist album and redesign it to better reflect the style that artist exudes. Create a web advertisement for the album as well.
Album: Bon Iver’s, “For Emma, Forever Ago”
My design process for the project started off of the computer and on a copy machine, where I moved printed text during the scanning process to create eerie movements and distortion. To better illustrate the movement and feeling of water/reflection, I also animated the album design in Adobe After Effects. The distorted typography represents the high and low pitches that Bon Iver achieves in their music with voice and instruments.
