CD Cover Layouts
Posted: Tue Oct 16, 2012 2:42 pm
I have no idea where to put this, so it's going in this forum for now.
Is there a checklist of things that should be present on the CD cover layout? I've never actually put much time into thinking about it and I'm just curious to know what are the things that can go wrong when the graphic designer is not familiar with this type of work. I guess I'm mostly looking at Andrew... but anyone who has released a CD or worked on a layout can jump in.
I know what should go on as far as production credits, but the rest seems to be a bit of a mystery to me... This thread can also serve to help anyone else that will be doing this in the future.
Can someone walk us through it from start to finish?
