The above image is a randomised album cover that is a result of a task we were set. Our task was to take a random image from flickr for the album artwork, the title of a random wikipedia article as the Band/Artist name and a random quote as the name of the album. I felt Phaeoramularia was an effective band name as it is unusual thus memorable. I felt the image of the frog and the album title "The unimaginable" are effective when joined with the band name as it compliments the unusual band name.
Today I learned how to use photoshop to alter my image. Giving the background layer a texture and adding a posterised effect completely changed the image. It went from being a natural picture of frog to a weird unnatural oil painting. I felt this was an effective exercise as i now feel i have the skills to create an effective digipak for my coursework.
