Your next assignment will be to design an Album booklet for a band


or artist. As a de signer, you must choose fonts, colors and images that
will provide visual clues about the music. Many times customers are
attracted to the Album artwork before they purchase the Album.
I will be playing several songs from which you will be assigned one.
Listen to the music and answer the following questions. After
listening to the song, you will create an Album single booklet design.
This design will be made to fit a CD/DVD. Therefore it is a folded
document. We will discuss the sizes in class.
