At Disc Makers, we’ve probably seen hundreds of thousands of album cover designs get printed in our factory. To be honest, some are ho-hum, and a few are – frankly – just plain bad! 😲
But, every once in a while, we see an album cover that’s so eye-catching it just stops us in our tracks and compels us to learn more about the band (then head over to their Bandcamp page to pick up a copy).

What is it about great album cover design that it can do that? In today’s video Disc Makers CEO Tony van Veen is joined by Becky Rodriguez-Smith, Disc Makers’ Design Director, and they discuss:

What are the four essential elements of creating a compelling album cover design?
What is the one job the album cover has?
Does creating a great cover design still matter in this streaming era?
Why is it a mistake to have your bass player’s cousin, who is a 'designer', create your album cover?

To illustrate her points, Becky shares a few before-and-after examples. 👍

If you care about your artist image and are interested in using your album cover to help you sell physical products, you don’t want to miss this!
