The classical/jazz/folk artists I chose for the book cover
project is the Vitamin String Quartet.
This group is difficult to describe, but essentially they are a group of
classical musicians who play rock and pop hits. Music by Vitamin String Quartet is featured in
a current Target commercial:
Because this group is a fusion of classical string
instruments and rock/popular music, my goal is to combine traditional with edgier
graphics.
I would like to feature stringed instruments, either as
the primary feature on the cover, or incorporated in a loose line drawing or within
silhouettes of musicians. Another idea
that appeals to me is to use a bold color on black as a visualization of sound
waves, and have the text appear within the "noise" of the graphic. After viewing the Photoshop Creative Effects
and Filters course, I was particularly intrigued by sketch effect, crystallizing
pixel effects, surface blur, film grain and vignette effects. I look forward to experimenting with them to
come up with an interesting result.
