FORERUNNER RECORDS LAUNCH





We were asked by Forerunner Records to produce a giveaway that provided their customers with information about their services. We couldn't resist doing a 7inch record sleeve.

We had less than 24 hours to come up with the concept and get the artwork to the printers. The lovely snap of Amanda Palmer from The Dresden Dolls we chose was by up and coming photographer Arjun Sohal. There was no time to print a cover with a hole so we opted for stickers of the logos and to have the colour coming through the dye-cut in an abstract way...

Printed onto 140 gsm Beswick’s paper. Type set in Berthold Akzidenz Grotesk - various weights. Pantone Colour 382...

Printed by Heathcoates in Sunny Wolverhampton - very bloody good and reasonably priced!

Super job for such a short turn-around! Keeping it old school with the Akzidenz Grotesk is also a big plus! Great work!
