This portfolio project challenges us to design a complete, four-sided album package—a 12-inch vinyl jacket and inner sleeve—using only high-quality vector illustration in Adobe Illustrator. The goal is to develop a strong, single creative theme that flows across all four panels, integrating mandatory elements like track listings, credits, and a barcode, while dedicating one full side to designing lyrics set to imagery. It’s a key exercise in balancing cohesive artistic vision with the detailed technical specifications needed for professional, print-ready packaging.




To prepare for the design, I:
Watched the movie, trailers and studied previous posters made
Identified key concepts: redemption, chosen family, emotional healing, connection, acceptance
Brainstormed emotions and visuals tied to these themes
Sketched layout ideas before committing to a final concept
Scene: Two characters sharing a swing — neutral, intimate, symbolic of connection
Minimal detail: Focus on silhouettes and body language instead of facial features
Centered composition: Reinforces unity and emotional balance
Empty space around subjects: Reflects solitude, reflection, and personal growth
Bold sans-serif (Title: PALMER)
Strong, grounded, and no-nonsense
Reflects Palmer’s hardened exterior and personal journey
Handwritten style (Tagline)
Soft, personal, emotional
Represents vulnerability, connection, and chosen family
Typography hierarchy ensures the viewer reads:
TITLE → image → tagline → credits
A soft, natural palette was chosen intentionally:
Muted greens: symbolize growth, healing, and hope
Warm neutrals: evoke grounded, real-world storytelling
Low contrast background: keeps attention on the characters
The palette maintains the emotional warmth of the film while aligning with a clean, modern minimalist aesthetic.
