Funds (2022)
Type design + Cover art ![](https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b3045b2be00b98c6a8b56784a8de7d0db72dc907177e2747398433b9378fc3ab/fundsvid.jpg)
I was asked to create cover art for the artist Rosier’s first official release - Funds. The release would be made up of two songs which were quite different, both sonically and thematically. Thus, I mainly focused on how I could best introduce him as an artist, whilst still retaining semblance to the music. This was something I attained over the process of creating several drafts.
I used the songs’ music video as a reference point, initially starting by collaging directly from it. After this, I worked primarily by hand, drawing both the artist and the typography in pencil - before digitising in Adobe Photoshop.
See below: Two initial proposals, further type drawings, colourway options, final cover, type in music video. ︎
