Guidelines:
You may design and/or produce your package utilizing whatever production mode you deem necessary. You may consider photography, scanning the image, illustration. The artwork can consist of scanned paintings, drawings and other sources. I encourage you to combine as many mediums as possible and to be highly experimental in nature. The name and logotype will count for one third of the grade for this project. Therefore it is essential that you give fair consideration to this. The rest of the CD project will count toward the remaining two thirds of your grade.
