Album Cover Design with a Message
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I'm looking for a talented graphic designer to help bring my vision for an album cover to life. The concept
is meant to symbolize unity, a willingness to fight for freedom and strength.
Key Elements of the Design:
- The "Black Power" fist, integrated with slanted red and blue stripes and white stars.
- A dagger held by the fist, featuring an eagle's wing on one side and the dagger's tip dripping with blood.
Stylistic and Aesthetic Preferences:
- Cartoonish is the closest I can think of only because I want people to see it and be able to redraw it (at least the outline) in a semi simple ways. But not so cartoonish that the symbol doesn't retain a message
- The background is something I'm conflicted on. I'm thinking plain white or black or even a black gradient. But I'm not sure what works yet. However, I am certain that it will be simple. So either solid or a basic gradient. I don't want the background to take away from the idea.
Ideal Skills and Experience:
-Experience in album cover design would be nice, but I'm willing to accept proficient artists who like the idea as much as I do
- Creative know how to visualize a concept and be willing to communicate about it
- Ability to create smooth and detailed illustrations that stand out
At a time where we need a symbol of unity more than ever, I really want someone who feels as though this idea might speak to them. Similar to how I felt when I finished writing the song I'll release with it.
I don't really draw at all but I attached a combination of photos to look at to help with the idea.
