PERSPECTIVE
I saw a pretty inspiring and awesome quote from Billy Talent's website the other day and decided to make a poster from what the lead singer said in an interview.

RESPONSE TO MUSIC
In class today creating album covers for bands that we like.
Things we were urged to include: mood, texture, experience and atmosphere of the music; can respond to lyrics and themes, narratives contained in the music; could include fashions of the times or a political/social message.
Questions we were asked to possibly include in the creation process: why do you feel passionate about their music? (reflect your experience)
Answer: I love the style and tone of both Billy Talent and Alkaline Trio's music, found it a bit hard to push aside remaking a cover when there are already awesome covers to these two albums.
I wanted to create two albums that I could link visual language to such as "addiction" to pills and "dead" to a crucifix.

INDESIGN PRACTICE
Had an introduction to InDesign today and had to produce an article using a layout of our choice from a slideshow. I preferred the photographic magazine layout for this particular article (article source: http://www.einslive.de/musik/platten/2012/09/120906_billy_talent_dead_silence.jsp) on Billy Talent.
Article belongs to 1LIVE and photograph by Dustin Rabin for Billy Talent.
