CD packaging design is a regular project in the studio. The budgets are modest, the market is saturated, time lines are tight and the client has to ensure everything has been accounted for.

In 2008 our diva celebrates the showing of colour

Producing the communication work is a simple and chaotic process — engage the canny eye and talents of Kat Macleod, Ortolan, to develop the season‘s diva; with diva in hand the studio madly puts together the packaging and promotion collateral; all under the constant supervision of Filter Music‘s founder JF (the Frenchman). This process typically takes place in the closing and crazy weeks of Christmas. 2008‘s diva makes a departure from collage and rendering to bold dashes of painterly colour contrasted with the whim of sparely cast pencil marks.

Thanks again to JF for your ongoing and inspired support.
