OUGD603 - Secret 7 2017 - Idea for Brief

I decided to check out the Secret 7 website to find out when the song titles for 2017 Secret 7 competition would be released in hopes of getting a head start on the designs.

I was confronted with a rather disappointing message on the home page of their site, informing me that the competition will not be taking place in 2017. I was initially annoyed because I have really enjoyed this competition brief in the past and was looking forward to developing it into a considerable brief.

However, I plan to select seven of my current favorite songs and design new album artwork for them and hopefully connect all of the tracks with a visual system or theme. This way, I will be able to tailor the briefs to my present creative concerns and interests and make it more appropriate for my portfolio.

My music taste is incredibly varied which will provide me with plenty of diverse material to chose from for this self initiated brief.
