"A new band", fast gaining popularity, comes to you requesting you to design the cover for its first album to be released within the week. The band doesn't have a name yet and its members ask you that when you design the album, you must also give the band its name. From what you heard of their demo CD and the feedback you've read so far, the band is on its way up. You are to be part of making music history by designing the cover for this band's first album. The band members are waiting in your sitting room - you have at least an hour to come up with a phenomenal album cover. Now, you get to work and here's how you will start:
1. THE BAND:
Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia and choose the link for "random article" on the top left side of the page. The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your musician(s) or band.
2. THE ALBUM:
Go to http://www.quotationspage.com/ and choose "random quotes" from the left menu. Scroll down to the end of the page. The last 4 to 6 words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your album.
3. Next, find or take a photo that fits the album and artist(s). Album covers are square, so don't forget to crop it.
4. Then, use your favorite editing program to create your cover (or, if you don't have one, Ace members have free access to picmonkey.com -- and there are many other free programs out there). You can use any image of yours for the album, old or new, but you must use your own images and do all processing for the cover and upload it during the time frame of the challenge.
The reality of this challenge is that you actually have longer than a few hours to come up with an album cover design.
