Album art

For my album art work i wanted a big intimidating robot to emphasise the style and feel I was going for in the packs sounds, after discussing my options with my tutor I had a look a on a few image purchasing websites such as Shutterstock and Adobes Fototlia to find what i was looking for. I found a few images that were very ideal however i underestimated the price and payment options that were available on these sites, the best offers were packages that allowed you to purchase more than one image for a set price, however I only wanted one image and this meant buying one for a higher amount that I was not prepared to pay.

Because of this predicament I took to talking to some friends of mine in the art, animation and vfx field and asked them what they thought i should so, alot of them gave me good advice on where to legally source a good image however one offered to let me use one of their previous works for the sound pack for free. On top of that he went back and changed the image to better make it suit the style I wanted, this saved me time and money searching for and spending money on an image online and I came out with a super original great quality image that was better than the ones I was originally looking at.
