Here is a video of my album plan for my print productions, I was inspired by the David Bowie album 'The Next Day', regarding the layout, not the images on the album. I prefer this layout as the album is unique, whereas it is not simply like normal music albums, also I feel the panorama effect will look far better with a bigger surface area.
Whilst producing this plan, I recalled back to my original idea of using oil pastels for the front cover (relating to the work of Jungle Doctors). I have decided to instead use the classic marble effect, I think this will be easy and simple to do colors of red, yellow and orange, to go well with the back image/panel, and to go with the concept of a sunset. The image shown below is one I have found on the internet, but it gives a brief idea of what I am going to try and portray. I have chosen to do this, not only because it links with the albums already made by Jungle Doctors, but because of it's uniqueness, it is an incorporation of art.


I'm not sure of using the marble effect. A student used it last year and it wasn't altogether a success. I'd have to see your design ideas. You have great photographs - it may be better to manipulate these.
