I wanted to create an album cover for my website to help promote my artists music. I started with this image of my artist and put it into Procreate so I could edit it.
First, I edited out some of the lines in the background to make it more simplistic, and then I started adding a design around the main image. I used a repeated pattern around the main image featuring colours from the photo - black, white, and a pop of red. Next, I added the title of the album 'Boys Will Be Bugs' - in the same style text as in the music video (digital convergence), and I added a white outline. This is what it looked like.
I wasn't very happy with this design originally, since the text was too hard to read (even when I changed it to white), and it looked too crowded, but I did want to keep the repeated pattern design around my main image. To make it less crowded, I removed the text from the top, made the main image larger, and the surrounding design smaller. I also moved the text onto the image so it was easier to read.
