I listened to my chosen track and tried to refine my final design by using the lyrics and the whole time philosophy of the song. The thought of using the hands of a clock to convey different directions in life and also add in imagery associated with different ages or events in a typical life-cycle could work quite well as a final design idea when it comes to illustrating the track.
Rubbings of leaves were incorporated into the design to show the progression of life, like the changing of the seasons. Coin rubbings were included as money is used throughout life and can be seen as a sign of independence which can be tied in with the point in life when a person leaves home.
Collage techniques were used to try and convey life's journey various elements were removed from publications using sellotape and placed on an assotate sheet to give an overall design view.
A colour progression for the design was also considered to allow for a clean flow throughout the design - colours were arranged from soft pastel colours to harder dark colours. This could also be used to convey progression through different seasons and therefore tie in with the track and life's journey.
