dc.description.abstract | In an age when downloading media is increasing at an exponential rate, static album art has
become obsolete. Current digital album artwork does not take advantage of the available
technology. Nor does it provide the user with an integrated experience. Previous attempts at
linking music to moving imagery have resulted in uninspiring "visualizer" plugins. These types
of media player add-ons do not produce emotionally or narratively relevant imagery for the
user. Furthermore, the limited selection of downloadable media that includes a digital
booklet, separates the booklet contents from the album cover. More importantly, these
disconnected elements do not compensate for their lack of tangible assets.
The objective of this thesis project was to create a hybrid of album design and motion
graphics for downloadable music. By creating a prototype, this project demonstrates the
concept that a library-style package of interchangeable moving images linked with audio
media, can enhance the narrative and emotional elements of the user experience | en_US |
