Georgia Healers CD Cover

October 6, 2009

Last month I spoke about a local band that had asked me to put together a CD cover for them.  If you recall, I gave them a few choices and options.  After a lot of thought and a few times of going back and forth, they finally made their choice.  Below is a draft of their cover and I could not be more excited. Not only am I thrilled with their choice, but I just love how it turned out.

A week or two ago I was asked to see what I could come up for a local band that wanted to use a lime and a shot glass as their cover for their CD that is coming out soon.  I have to be honest, I though long and hard about this one; it was a bit intimating.  How should I light it?  One light or two?  Grids?  Reflectors? What is the background?  Bright? Dark? Moody?  Etc etc.

With a little bit of influence from Zack Arias and his One Light Workshop off I went.  And below is the initial result, I am not sure what they will think.  I sent them a few to look over today and I am sitting here with bated breath waiting for their feedback.  They will either love the samples I sent over or they will hate them;.  OK, I guess it could be in between as well.  More than anything, this was an experience.  I am very used to working with people.  But a product?  Well, that is very different.  But I guess the good news is that they don’t talk back!

Not sure if #1 or #2 is my fav.  But I think it is #2.
