CD Cover Design Brief

This is the name of the product, which is a series of "how to" videos, for mid-size to FORTUNE 50 firms, VC's, and potentially graduate schools, looking to grow through the creation of new products, new services, new companies, or even create new industries. The project will be to create a design for the DVD covers, Workbook cover, and then the title screen for each segment in the series.

Each submission should include a front & back cover: no need to design anything for the inside of the packaging. The submissions should include, at your discretion, the credentials (name, logo, and a URL) of the designer on the back. I certainly want to promote the winning designer by including this information.

For the consumer, the fulfilled order will include a 9 to 10 disc box set, a workbook, and some blank templates. So your design needs to include a "placeholder" for each of the 9 to 10 segment titles.

Reason: Seemed to be some confusion over the payment options, so let me clear that up- a winner will get paid. Also, the winning designer will have my permission to use this project in their portfolio at their choosing and finally, please include how you would like to be listed as the designer in your submissions.

My most sincere apologies for the delays in managing the feedback.  Please allow me to add some important information to the project overview which I believe to be relevant.  This packaging will hold discs 1-8 in a box set, that will also come with a workbook.  As such, the cover design for the DVD's needs to have a placeholder for a title, such as "Disc 1: Introduction" and so forth.   


Next, please include the following quotes on the back cover, outside:
"We brought Guy in on short notice to speak about trends, innovation and culture. He quickly adapted his message to our need and team, instantly adding value to the conversation. It was nice to work with someone that "got it" right away," Stacey Vogler, VP, Marketing and eBusiness at Assurant Solutions

"Guy is creative, innovative and able to influence an organization. These are the capabilities required to be an innovator. I recommend Guy as a creator and leader of innovation." Ray Price, Professor University of Illinois 

"Guy is an absolute master when it comes to understanding both how to think about the future and how to apply it to corporate strategic challenges. To me, he represents the very best in how to cross that chasm" Don Abraham, EVP, The Futures Company 

"Guy is a visionary entrepreneur who lives in the future. His knowledge and vision is matched by his ability to develop mission, project, and action plans." Dr. Henry Hexmoor PhD, Associate Professor at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale

Finally- please add "Packaging design by: and insert your information as the designer."  I want to make sure the designer behind the chosen submission is promoted through this project.  

Thank you,
Guy

  • The theme used as a core pillar in each segment is "Discovering 10(9th) Opportunities: How to create a product or service capable of positively impacting 1B lives within 10 years." I am not saying this language is a "must have", but I want to be clear with designers about the goal I first put forth, and then teach to accomplish. By being listed on the packaging, you will be contributing to this vision.

    Also- see quotes in the most recent extended update-
Nice to have
