TraceOddity Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 It's finally time! I've wanted to make this CD as 'open-source' as possible, and the artwork is no excption! If you want to submit artwork, now's the time. You can do as much or as little as you like, one part or the whole package. Due to budgetary constraints, we don't need any more than a single fold, double-sided insert (4.75x9.5 inches). If you also want to do a tray card (the back insert) and/or a label, feel free. Title: How We See The World The front cover needs to mention the CCC in some way...like a bi-line that says 'music for the Coldplaying Charity Club' or 'An Album for the Coldplaying Charity Club', something like that. Put it anywhere on the front cover you like. The inside of the insert (the part ppl will read when they open the CD) needs to include the following: Causes Supported By The Coldplaying Charity Club (Let's Put A Smile Upon Their Faces) Followed by a list which I'll provide here soon. The complete tracklist hasn't been firmed up yet, so don't worry about it for the time being...I can always insert it down the road. Feel free to use the Albertus font for now, but know that it may be changed depending on permission. Feel free to use any other font you like if it lends itself more to your concept. Original artwork is recommended. Choosing a design based on a Coldplay album or concept (i.e. Baudot code) could result in legal recourse, and besides, it's new music. It deserves new artwork. The winner will be chosen by a panel of judges chosen by myself, and will be awarded a free copy of the CD, as well as a prize pack of not-so-expensive goodie,lol. NOTE: Photoshoppers, please do not flatten images if possible, as further additons and editing of the text may be required. Submission deadline: Extended to March 1st. Thx in advance to everyone for taking part!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Rose Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I had an idea for the front cover if I can find the time to design it. Although the inside cover of the sleeve I have no idea for yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntjd Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 does the cd have a name, other than CCC cd? eg could the title on the front read "LIFT- the CCC CD" if you get what i mean.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sienna Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Umm, sounds nice. A few questions though: 1. Is there a certain concept behind the cd? This is to help me see what I can and cant work with. 2. Is the title just :CCC Cd? 3. How many can I submit? :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICK8 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Would people please read the first post?;) Do you need a hand..seems like you are stressing a little..only too happy to help..:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Well...apparently I came off as rude or stressed. THat was not my intent. The Title, (Which is in the 1st post) is " How We See The World". The concept is simply a group of musicians who are members of this forum giving their talent to raise funds and awareness for the CCC. If you want to know more about what the CCC is doing, check out the stickied 'overview' thread. People are welcome to submit as much or as little, as many or as few ideas as they like, and original artwork or photography is encouraged.:) Hey, Rick. If you want to help out, you could always do a sound byte for me. *wink, nudge*:D Hope that helps...if not, feel free to PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
