Computer Arts issue 147

In our main feature this issue: Supersize Design, we’re celebrating the work of those designers who are lucky enough to land those really enormous jobs. They project images onto buildings, paint aircraft liveries, or hang lavish banners on 20-storey buildings. Also in this issue we interview Matt Pyke, Universal Everything’s head honcho, we profile Psyop, New York’s $30m motion graphics house and in our new roundtable feature we ask, “Are there enough women in design?”
Those of your looking for practical advice are well catered for with tutorials covering movie poster design skills, Flash video, illustrator drawing techniques and paper character creation

Computer Arts Projects goes on record

Computer Arts Projects, the monthly in-depth guide for digital creatives, gets to grips with the music industry in its September issue which comes packaged inside an attention-grabbing 12-inch record sleeve.

Offering graphic designers and creatives the skills, advice and guidance they need to work with music industry clients, the September issue delivers practical tips and expert insight on all design elements. From album sleeve and music video design, through to creating graphics for clubs, the issue also includes a comprehensive 8-page guide on how to follow and deliver on a music design brief.

Tucked away inside a shrink-wrapped record sleeve, the music industry issue of Computer Arts Projects features input from the biggest names in design. Ian Andersen of the legendary Designers Republic outfit discusses the company’s role in reinventing sleeve design in the 1980s and Massive Attack’s long-term art guru Tom Hingston talks exclusively about his design work for the influential band. The issue is rounded off in style with a retrospective look at 25 years of the king of music television, MTV.

The issue also includes a free CD featuring an interview with music-focused design group Red Design, extracts from a brilliant new book on design legend Peter Saville and a full music video from up and coming rock group King Furnace.
