CD Cover Design Brief
I am looking for an expressive CD cover design for Seattle-based band, The Course. We are releasing our 2nd EP entitled 'Heart Burst In Reverse'. Cover should include EP title and band name. Looking for creative ideas centered around the title of the EP. Thinking colors could be reds and deep greens. But open to other expressive ideas. Possibly silhouetted person with arms stretched out and colors or symbols or shapes coming out of the chest area. Feelings should emote/express the idea of "heart burst" as a positive transformative experience.
