mewithoutNoBread: A Mixtape

So it's finally done! My CD/InDesign project for my computer imaging class was due today, and it turned out pretty well, I think! Here are the results (also, clicking the link below each for the larger image is highly recommended! The lyrics to the songs are pretty important to the concept):

Unfortunately, though I have the booklet printed, I'll have to re-print it before spec review next fall; for whatever reason, my PDFs printed out too small for the CD case! I'll end up re-printing this summer at The UPS Store or Kinko's, and hopefully I'll be able to use a nicer paper that I won't have to glue together to create a booklet. Also, I'm not sure why the front/back cover spread and spread 3 are so dusty-looking. Just imagine that those two look more saturated for now!

Anyways, let me know what you guys think! Questions, comments, and constructive crit are all welcome!

Adobe InDesign Project

A few weeks ago, we were assigned a project in my Adobe CS3 class. The project is to design an entire CD, including an 8-page booklet, featuring a real band, a fake band, your own band, etc. I chose to merge the two and make a mixtape of sorts, and I ended up getting a fairly solid concept on paper. Here are my sketches, to be colored in Photoshop:

Booklet: front

Booklet: back
Page 2 (the lyrics will be in the center of the page, and a different type -face will be used for the words on the bottom)
Page 3 (lyrics will be added)
Page 4
Page 5

Page 6

Back of the CD case.

The playlist for the album will be as follows:

1. Torches Together! (Prologue) -- mewithoutYou
2. Wolf am I! (and Shadow) -- mewithoutYou
3. The Death (A) -- Showbread
4. The Sky (Alpha) -- Showbread
5. Matthias Replaces Judas -- Showbread
6. every thought a Thought of You -- mewithoutYou

Anyways, I'm pretty excited about it! I'll make another update on the project after it's finished, which will be sometime before its due date on Thursday, Apr. 23rd. Hope you guys like it, and feel free to give suggestions!
