Cover Art Photoshop Practice

To practice making cover art, I used a random Wikipedia article for the band's name, the last five words of a random quote for the album title, and a random image from Flickr for the image itself.

Welcome to my Media Blog

My A2 coursework will consist of:

- A recreation of a professional music video with all of A2.
- Research and plan for my own music video.
- Create my own music video based on a track chosen from a selection of tracks given by my teacher.
- Ancilliary tasks, including two of the following: CD digipack, website and an advert for a magazine.
- Evaluation of my music video.

I shall do all of this throughout the following year, with the next month focusing on the recreation video with my A2 classmates.
