[QUOTE=Greeneyes;35953068]Hasn't Ghost in the shell had it's right bought for a live action film by dreamworks or something? If it actually goes ahead it'll have an ok budget with Steve Spielberg confirmed as a producer.[/QUOTE]
Steven Spielberg is the worst
I guess if he's only producing he might not damage it too much
Still, much as I would like the contrary, I predict it will be poor if it goes ahead
how is spielberg the worst what
he's bad in recent years. his film making talent has only gotten worse with age
yeh i probably haven't seen any of his films post 2000 actually
hes far from the worst
He's like a classic band that never broke up. Still better than average, but stale and without momentum.

Got this long running with sketches and finally decided to put in on digital.

i like this, but the placeholder copy is pretty horrible right now. fitting it into a circle is very cheesy and the font is just awful. but otherwise i like it!

I don't know what you mean about that, what placeholder?
[QUOTE=Autumn;35968038]Fitting it into a circle is very cheesy and the font is just awful.[/QUOTE]
Fair enough comment, but do you have any other suggestions?
I'm not happy with how the font turned out, I wanted it to be in a circular shape, but to not be warped or bulging like that. I'll give it another go. Unless you think scrap the circular idea?
I love feedback, but it's hard when I can't really gain anything from it.

i would say there's no real reason to keep it in a circle, as it's likely to look bad and there's no good reason to put it in there. but if you really want to keep it in the circle then i'd try a more handwritten approach.

not that this is a perfect example for what you want, but as a quick example you see how the words fit into the pumpkin? something like that looks better than a really clean font being warped into a circle shape
Having "campfire songs" in a nice neat signature would look cool too since it kind of looks like a postcard to me

Yeah that was what I wanted to do, I tried it out with a handwritten approach just then but wasn't really satisfied with how it fit into the circle so I just decided to have it square.

That's kind of what I went for, I used the style of the Animal Collective logo.

I have 4 different versions here, but I'm not sure which one to go for. I'm leaning towards the 4th.

Also, a friend pointed out that having the branch behind the red swirl looks weird, so I've changed that since then.
I'd suggest that you try removing the water drops and stretching the text across the top in one line - CAMPFIRE SONGS.
At the moment the composition feels off, especially with the title cramped up into that corner

Not really. You took some slight inspiration. But they're nowhere in the same alley.

The problem I have with your cover is that the graphics and photo doesn't work together. It just seems to random and not thought out.
I also feel that the only good thing about it is the photo and then other thing is put on it and degrades it.
But I don't really have any constructive criticism to bring in because I just flat out dislike what you're trying to do.
[QUOTE=dgg;35976533]Not really. You took some slight inspiration. But they're nowhere in the same alley.[/QUOTE]
You should really do some research before you make such statements. There are multiple Animal Collective logos, I wasn't talking about that one.

Fair enough if you don't like the design. You're entitled to your opinion, but don't tell me it hasn't been thought out.
[img]http://niggaupload.com/images/dYX7e.jpg[/img]
I started with a series of quick concept sketches, followed by thumbnails, testing space, and some rough layouts. I came to the conclusion that the current design is the best.
I appreciate your feedback, fair enough if you don't like the mixture of the graphics and the photographs, but I'm not the first to do it. Again I'd love if I could actually take something from the feedback and rework on the idea.
It's far too late in development to just scrap the idea and start again. So you're saying the only thing about it you don't like is the graphics over the top of the photograph? Well that was my idea from the start. I don't think it's entirely impossible for it to look good.
Do you have any suggestions? Why don't you like it? How can I fix it? It's hard when people have nothing constructive to work with.

Thanks for some actual constructive feedback.
I'll give that a go, I'll have to experiment with something else because I don't want to remove the rain drops completely because it's part of the theme.
I could possible put the text on the other side so it balances with the fire. But I thing centering it would look best, thanks.
Hopefully this isn't so terrible that you can't tell what it is

Oh, sorry, I didn't read the quote properly. Thought you meant the cover design, not the text.

Just making different ideas doesn't make it thought out. That just means you've tested a lot of different things. I don't see any words on why you do what you do, why you use the elements you do, why you use those specific colours, why those kind of shapes, why a tree, why a sunset, etc etc. I'm not saying you haven't thought it out, but I can't see it in the piece nor in the process image there, so some explanation would help, then maybe I could provide some feedback on how to execute that idea and concept in a better (or worse depending on opinions and taste) way.
Like I said I don't like it because it have some plain curvy graphical elements on top of a photo that doesn't really look like they have any purpose there other than trying to look good. I see the whole fire and rain thing, but why are there fire and drops of water there in the first place? The photo is good as it is and it just seems ruined by some pointless "I want to do something cool and make some things that interact with the photo". So yeah, again, I need some explanation here because I just don't get it. What is the idea, your thoughts, your concept?
