1- Concept -
Why?
- Better sound quality than your standard MP3 file or CD
- The dust and scratches add to authentic feel of the analogue format
- Mixing with vinyl is more responsive and reliable
- As graphic designers we love print and album art
- Nothing digital compares to the feeling of putting the needle on the record
2. Contextual references -
- Design from the 30's (introduction of the Vinyl record)
- Give Up Art - Current work, Applepips, FWD>>
- Acetate / Boiler room - Vinyl nights running in Leeds and London -
Crisp using very few or no colours, simple and clean
- Stocks /
3. Initial Ideas
A package promotes and directs people to experience playing a vinyl
and try it out for themselves. I also want to try and work with current
nightclubs such as Acetate that runs a 100% vinyl night in Leeds.
- Poster designs with statements about vinyl
- Promotional publication – including a range of vinyl sleeve designs
- Posters - smaller formats for bedroom walls - A2 / A3 as well as
larger formats for billboards and wheat pasting
4. Imagery
- Scans of Vinyls, Negatives from photography project,
- Black and white vector of record
- Logo Designs - 'Just Spin'
