‘Who’s the monster now?’ Album Package
What makes someone a monster? What is "good" and what is "evil", and how can connotations of those words be subverted? For my narrative, I wanted to explore one where I can showcase a role reversal of our perceptions of what is a monster, showing a human monster hunter who is more evil than the actual monster they are hunting. This came in the form of an album package with a cover, an internal panel, and a back cover.
The Album cover for the project depicts what seems like a valiant monster hunter saving a baby from a lycan.
This is the interior panel for the project where the truth is revealed: what we assumed was a savior saving the child from the monster was instead an invader stealing and attacking their parent.
For the Album Back Cover, I wanted to have a sort of "Trophy Wall" of my Hunter's past "victories" to show how vicious a monster she truly is. She treats creatures like trophiesand decorations, showing how little she values them. She poses for the camera, holding her mask as she truly acts like a wolf in sheep's clothing. When designing her, I really wanted to channel an 'officer' type of uniform with a truly fearsome weapon to convey her vicious nature.
