A photomontage is a collage work that incorporates cut (or torn) photographic images, generally in a semi-abstracted style and over a white or solid-color background. For this project, I used photomontage techniques to design an album cover for the premiere album of a band with a randomly-generated name “Stunning Stunning”.
I used my own interpretation of the band’s name to think up their genre and style. At first I didn’t include the band’s name on the album art. The first process was only incorporating non-photographic elements. The composition was primarily defined by the photos.
Sketches / ideas:

Round 1:
For my round 2 of concepts my ideas were more developed & I incorporate type to the album. The silhouettes were the primary concept idea of my whole album. I defined my silhouettes more for the album.
Round 2:
