Deluxe Album Cover Artwork
This package design was for "A Book Like This"... the debut & platinum selling ARIA award winning album release from Australian music sensations Angus & Julia Stone.
Click here to view a short video montage I whipped up of the entire package over on my instagram page.
This deluxe CD & DVD version is one of several package designs that was printed for their debut album.
Shown here is the deluxe perfect bound book version... this epic print job included a padded cover, 20 page bound illustrated booklet with song lyrics*, bound sleeves with CD & BONUS DVD with artwork.
*Every letter of every word on each lyric page in the booklet was painstakingly pieced together with cut and paste letters like a serial killer... taken from a scanned hand drawn alphabet the band had given me... piecing together each letter into words... into sentences using Photoshop and the scale tool... This was not a keyboard font! I had a weekend to deliver the job and no budget for font creation or the skills at the time to make a font... no sleep for days.
