Hello,
This layout is my CD jacket made in Package Design class. We were to design a CD jacket using the CD templates from our program’s database. At first, I could not decide what to place on the cover but then it hits me. I went to a poetry reading last year with my aunt who is on the CD jacket and she won a CD from one of the poets that were present. She is a poet herself so I figured I would make a poetry CD highlighting her talent. I created the patterns myself that is how I came up with the color scheme. She sent me a photo that had this burgundy transparent effect that tied in nicely. I wanted the theme to be elegant and semi-playful at the same time. The fonts were not too challenging because I do not like to use too many display fonts. When laying out large amounts of text, always use a readable serif or sans serif typeface to avoid taking away from the written material.
I was delighted to work on this project because it showed me the client presence and attitude affects your daily grind. I’m not the best people’s person but I pleasant enough to get what needs to be done without any hassle or drama. Always remember you’re going to have all kinds of clients (mean, unknowledgeable, loud or rude), just keep in my mind to have a level head when dealing with them and you should make it out okay. When I’m the customer or client, I always try to put myself in the working person place and treat them with the same respect that I would want back.
