The Brief: “I need album art… Here’s the music.”
The photography (by Christoph Heierli) played a big part in the look, and it fits in really well with the concept. A picture-less film.
Like many great vintage films, the story being told through the album is a timeless one, yet extremely unique. Even when just holding an old vintage film reel, there’s a sense that you are currently holding a piece of history. One that has helped shape the world to what it is today. My aim was to capture the drama that is normally associated with this and to create that experience with the packaging. The listener or customer should feel exactly like they’re holding an important piece of the artist’s history.
