Design Show & Final Piece

My design space was allocated in a corner of the room beside a screen as I wanted people to be able to hear the related song while viewing my design work. A lyrical slideshow also appeared on the screen provided to allow people to read the words and get a sense of the meaning behind the song.

A small shelf was attached to my design board to house one of my record sleeves and a self adhesive hook was attached to hold the headphones for viewers to listen to the song while viewing the work. A table below was also used to showpiece previous years design work and to allow people to look through another record sleeve I created on different colour card.









The final record sleeve was created by printing the full front and back cover to the required measurements on large format matt finish paper. This print-out was then spray mounted onto previously bought card and the required flaps and folds were scored into the card and marks and measurements were carefully drawn out. The card was then trimmed to the appropriate sizes.











The lyric book and branded poster were also printed on matt finish paper scored in the required fold positions and stapled in the middle (only lyric book). The curved lips were created by cutting slits around a large circular dinner plate for the vinyl slot and saucer plates for the two smaller corner lips.

The inside holding flap was folded up inside the record sleeve, its previously created tabs folded in underneath and attached to the back cover by spray mounting once again. Once the glue was dried the vinyl, lyric book and poster were inserted into their appropriate lips or slots to complete the final memorabilia record sleeve piece.
