Cultural / Context information for the jury

Emil De Waal + Spejderrobot is a Danish critically acclaimed electronic-jazz band established in 2008. The band came to us with the task to design the cover of their third album named “3”. Formerly Emil De Waal + Spejderrobot released their first and second album as vinyls named “Nr. 1” and “Nr. 2”. EDW + S have always been creative with their albums, especially noticeable with album nr. 2 that was sold in a specially designed pizza box. The band wanted their third album “3” as a vinyl cover that simply and elegantly represented the number three. Compared to other tasks at us, the project scale was of course small. The team consisted of an Executive Creative Director, an Art Director and an Artwork Finisher. The budget for the task was small, but luckily the idea wasn’t costly - and we were able to produce it in Denmark.

Tell the jury about the art direction.

The number 3 is printed in high gloss vanish to create a tactile and seamless connection between the cover and the vinyl. Furthermore, the central sticker graphic of the record is only printed on the lower part, making the number 3 more distinct. The background of the vinyl consists of 3 polls, where the barcode is pulled to tie a bow around the design of the number 3. Beside the vinyl, we produced a small graphic film that was pushed on social media.
