Kid Cudi Man on the Moon Cover ReDesign

Redesigning Kid Cudi’s "Man on the Moon" for its 15th anniversary, the project aligns the cover with his evolving music, employing introspective and psychedelic themes. Analysis of style, impact, and narrative informed the new animated design with embossed foil for vinyl, blending tradition with modernity.
Learning Outcomes:
Reimagining Kid Cudi's album cover, I merged visual analysis with brand identity, honed my narrative and design skills, and leveraged AI tools to enhance creativity. The final animated and embossed vinyl cover reflects a blend of tradition and innovation for the 15th anniversary release.
