Brief
The next project required me to make a band album and a couple singles further developing my band, 'Seven Stages of Graphic Grief'. By the end of the next three weeks we need to have:

My original idea for the album was to have the moth on-top of the skull, however after taking pictures and from group feedback on 29/02/24 the handmade moth and real deer skull contrast too much and do not leave room for other ideas which correlate to this one. Therefore, I am going to separate the two main aspects and make them into the two singles required for this project. This means I would have the main theme being mounting/taxidermy also linking to my mark which could look like a satanic symbol.

Experimenting with colour
From others opinions and my own, I have decided the purple looks most suitable for what I'm trying to achieve with this album.
My idea to link all three singles and album togther is the animals so I will have a deer, moth and butterfly all pinned on the wall. I also want to have a shadow of my mark to include it.

The pictures taken are darker than they initially looken when they were taken so I next went into photoshop to change this and add text.
