Thank you everyone for voting for The Hidden's album cover; it was much appreciated. Kudos also to the other photographers and finalists and those who participated in the voting process. Finally, thanks to Summerfield @summerfield for hosting the last challenge.
On to the next challenge then!
Let's suppose that some up and coming musicians found out they can come to 365 to find the best album cover designers, and they want to see samples of your work. Come on, let's show them!
1. First, THE BAND or THE ARTIST: Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia and choose any of the Featured Articles on the main page for your band/artist/musician.
If any of those featured articles do not appeal to you, you may try this: in the upper left of the Wikipedia logo, click on the 3 bars and the Main Menu opens. Scroll down and click on "Random Article". The title of the article that comes up will be the name of your band/artist/musician. You may click on the 'Random Article' four (4) times until you find a more appealing or suitable name for your artist or band.
2. THE ALBUM: Go to http://www.quotationspage.com and click on "Random Quotes" from the left menu. Scroll down to the end of the page. The last 4 to 6 words of any of the three last quotes on the page is the title of your album, whichever you think would go with your band or artist.
3. Next, find or take a photo that fits the album and artist(s). The cover can be made up of one single shot or an edit with multiple layers, and so on. There are no limits to processing options. Album covers are square, so don't forget to crop it.
4. You may use any editing program to create your cover -- photoshop, gimp, ipiccy, ribbet, picmonkey -- there are many other free programs out there; even your mobile or tablet would have an app you can use. You may use any image or images, old or new, provided they are your own images, do all processing for the cover, and upload it during the time frame of the challenge.
5. You may submit more than one album cover but only one album cover per photographer will be considered for voting.
