Design a creative album cover for a landmark release

The Brief

About us

I'm an independent rap artist with over 50,000 monthly Spotify listeners, 8 million streams and 12,500 Youtube subscribers. I thrive on thinking outside the box and I love to tell stories with my music and take you to different personalities and worlds. I'm not your typical, crap mumble rapper or hip hop artist without any depth - my music has a message and a purpose. It's raw, unfiltered, personal and every track is a journey into the world that is Knox Hill.

What's your vision?

I wait to leave this as open ended as possible and leave it to creative interpretation. I think talking about my album will serve as a good starting point! The album is called ‘Letters From Paris’ - basically every song represents a letter, and each letter tells a story. From start to finish, it’s personal, it’s dark, it’s raw, there’s many twists and turns, and it’s pure, unfiltered hip hop. I think a darker, sharper style fits my theme of this album and who I am. Maybe something that plays off the ‘letters’ factor, or Paris. The one main thing I ask is that you include the album title ‘Letters From Paris’ on the front and also include my logotype somewhere on the front. I highly recommend you go listen to the two singles I have released for it to get a feel for who I am as an artist with this release: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVqV81Qztww - C’est La Vie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCLMzZz9AlU - Noir As for the back here is the track list to be included. Please have the back design compliment the front: .01 First Letter .02 Noir .03 Point Blank .04 C’est La Vie .05 Driving In The Dark .06 Carnival .07 LFP .08 Why .09 Outlaw .10 Six Degrees .11 Gemini .12 Memories .13 Last Letter Bonus Track: Take Me Away So - I need front and back covers. I will release this album primarily online but I'd love to take this to print for my dedicated fanbase as well.

Movie poster for Sealed Cargo
A Spanish language film shot in Bolivia about a group of policemen trying to find a place to unload a trainload of toxic dump. Sadly for them, the public is aware of the cargo, and so they are confronted with resistance along the way. Stark and darkly comic, this is an art house feature which we will be placing on digital platforms and cable.

Movie poster for The Constitution
Synopsis: "The vicious homophobic attack on a professor brings him into sudden contact with a Serbian couple living in his building. But while the wife nurses his wounds, her policeman husband provokes the professor’s own deep-seated, ugly biases. Intolerance and bigotry clash against humanity, humility and what unites us all as the professor helps the policeman memorize the Croatian constitution." This film has won awards around the world in festivals, and has had a very popular run in Eastern Europe. We will be releasing in key markets, such as New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and more. The winning poster will receive coverage in movie theaters throughout the US.

Immaculate Styles
Immaculate Styles Digital Design 2017 _______ Series of posters promoting an upcoming showcase for a New York-based musician, DJ Immaculate Styles. These digital designs are meant to replicate what a physical poster would like after it’s exposed to outdoor elements. Severe sunlight dulls the typography and crisps up the edges of the page, heavy rain causing the colors to bleed and fuse together.

Movie poster for Pushing Dead
A dark comedy Pushing Dead tells a story about a struggling writer, HIV positive for 20+ years, accidentally deposits a $100 birthday check, he is dropped from his health plan for earning too much. In this new era of sort-of universal care, can he take on a helpless bureaucracy or come up with $3000 a month to buy meds on his own?

Poster for K3 Film Festival
The K3 Film Festival in Villach, Austria, puts a strong focus on its neighbouring tri-cultural area and offers the public a comprehensive overview of the region’s film production. It features a comprehensive programme of short and feature films from Carinthia (Austria), Friuli Venezia Giulia (Italy), Slovenia and an industry meeting including the film commissions of all three regions. The topic of this year´s festival edition will be GRENZEN: LIMITS & BORDERS. The visual concept should not focus too bluntly on the refugee crisis and Europe´s external borders, but should evoke new thoughts on the ambiguity of the German term “Grenzen”, which means as well “limits” as well as “borders” or “frontiers”.
