Buzzjack Album Cover Design Competition

http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z165/Jark101/buzzjack-album.jpg

Welcome to Buzzjack's Album Cover Design Competition! The competition works in much the same way as the Single Cover Comp; you quite simply have to make a cover for an album of your choice that's on the release schedule for the week, and submit it! At the end of the week, voting begins and by the end of the weekend a winner is announced. Each week the leaderboard will be updated, so why not try your hand at cover design? If you're a pro with photoshop you've got a headstart, and if not you have nothing to lose!

Rules

 

1: You can submit just one cover each week - however, if you feel like changing your cover midweek, it's not a problem - just update your original post.

 

2: Your submitted cover must have been created by you; if you are found to have been stealing cover designs from others, as has happened in the past, you'll be banned from the contest!

 

3: Any member of Buzzjack is perfectly welcome to vote for the covers submitted, during the weekend voting session. Contestants should note that you cannot vote for your own cover!

 

4: An overall winner from the leaderboard will be announced every four months, with the leaderboard then being reset back to zero.

 

5: This thread will close at 8pm UK time on Friday; all covers must be submitted by that time. If a situation arises that prevents you submitting a cover, but you would still like to, PM me and I will extend the deadline by a couple of hours - however the voting thread will not open any later than Friday night.

 

6: Mikal will PM all cover designers before Sunday lunchtime if they have yet to vote; those who create a cover but who do not vote, regardless of the reminder, will lose 20 points from their final score.

 

7: Covers cannot be submitted for albums not on the below release schedule: This includes any compilation series which isn't artist-specific, such as the Now or Clubland series of releases.

 

8: If you no longer wish to continue the game, and wish for your name and score to be removed from the leaderboard, PM myself or Mikal.

 

The deadline for submission of covers is 8pm Friday; PM me if you have any problems.

 

These are the albums released this week; you can choose any album from the below list to model your cover on:

 

2Pac - Best Of Part 1: Thug

2Pac - Best Of Part 2: Life

Cascada – Perfect Day

The Choirboys – The Carols Album

Ghostface Killah – The Big Doe Rehab

Jean-Michael Jarre – Oxygene [30th Anniversary Edition]

Josh Groban – Noel

Mindy Smith - My Holiday

Montag – Going Places

Mudvayne - By The People For The People

Remi Nicole – My Conscience & I

Rufus Wainwright – Rufus Does Judy At Carnegie Hall

Silje Nes - Ames Room

U2 – The Joshua Tree [20th Anniversary Edition]

It's not all about winning; if you fancy having a go, just give it your best shot!

Cheers for the votes everybody and congrats to russt and Jark for two great covers. As there aren't many new releases around Christmas, and this competition started late in the year why don't we do covers for all the ones we missed earlier in the year? Perhaps Jark could pick out 20, say, and we could design one of them. Just a thought.

Great idea! I'll work out a way of choosing some I think would be popular and add them into next week's comp. ^_^

Ugh this took me FOREVERRRR. But it ended up nice I think.

Bit uninspired this week, so I've taken the idea I used for last week's Remi Nicole single cover and used it on the LP! Think of it as a corporate identity carried across multiple releases like the record companies do. Or a bit of a cheat! ^_^
