Revival 450 album pages

For movies, trailers and posters are needed as media to complete the work during the promotion. However, the trailers and posters of the movie are relatively special. The trailers are edited according to the movie plot, and a large part of the posters are also In the filming process with makeup shooting, shooting alone also exists, but relatively speaking, it is relatively rare.

But for albums, it’s different. An album first needs an album cover. This is people’s first impression of an album. Before people hear the music, the cover can show the album’s color and tone to a certain extent. Secondly, albums also need album pages and promotional posters. Unlike movies, which combine pictures and sounds, albums only have sound. Therefore, the inner pages and posters are an important supplement to the album.

Of course, with the rise of Michael Jackson, the importance of music video for album promotion has also risen to a whole new level. After entering the 21st century, the release of music videos can become a crucial part of the album promotion. Singles with music videos and singles without music videos are in terms of sales, on-demand rate, attention, etc. There will be big differences in item data.

However, EMI does not plan to shoot music videos for the glory to death for the time being, because this is a very expensive fee. At present, EMI has invested high production costs in the glory to the death, from the recording studio to the CD copy. , Are far beyond the original plan of EMI. Therefore, EMI decided to decide whether to make music videos and several more music videos based on the results after the release of the Glory To Death album. This is also a common planning method for new singers.

The album pages in the early 1990s were not cumbersome. The included pages of the tapes were usually lyrics and repertoires, while the included pages of the CD contained a few more photos of the singer, nothing more. It’s not like entering the album pages of the 21st century, sometimes even a booklet. The albums on the inside pages alone weigh a few ounces, and there are some singers’ albums that are simply a spree, except for albums. , There are dvd\\ photo and some peripherals. The main reason is the shrinking of the music market. Record companies can only use this method to make fans feel that they are worth the money and are willing to pay for albums.

So in the early 1990s, shooting album pages was not a hard work. As long as the album cover was shot, the work was basically half done, and there were still a few more shots that could be made into huge posters. The photo is the work done. But even so, for the members of the glory to the death, this is a brand new job, full of uncertainty and excitement.

When they arrived at the photo studio, the band members seemed very surprised, because this studio looked like an abandoned warehouse, not at all like a professional venue dedicated to taking pictures, even if it was a haunted wasteland. There is no sense of violation.

Hugo naturally knows more about this. Whether it is Hugo’s interviews with many magazines in the past year or so, taking pictures is one of them; or in Lancaster’s previous memory, for this The scenes are not unfamiliar, "This kind of warehouse is convenient to build a background, and the rental fee is relatively cheap, so it is more suitable as a photo location."

"No wonder we are almost in New Jersey." Alfonso looked at the barren landscape around him, and couldn't help sighing.

Henry and Pedro were at the forefront. A photographer’s team had already greeted him. Henry turned his head and called, "If you are looking for a treasure, I think the possibility of'sex' will be greater. ; Of course, if you are looking for a hiding place..."

These words made the staff who came out to greet them all laughed, and Hugo and others quickly followed. The staff standing by took the initiative to introduce themselves, "Good afternoon, I am Ali Miller (.), Albert Watson's assistant."

This "female" named Ai Li is over thirty, but she still has the playfulness of a young "female". The freckles on her nose and cheeks are adorned with her brilliant smile, which can easily bring happiness to people. Feeling. After shaking hands with the band members separately, she ‘showed’ Hugo a big smile, "Hey, Hugo, meet again."

"I hope everything goes well for today's shooting. Albert is in a good mood today?" Hugo returned with a smile, and walked into the warehouse side by side with Ellie.

Allie shrugged, "He hasn't been there yet, he should be listening to your album master in the studio, so you can start praying." Allie winked slyly at Hugo and walked forward. "I think you can start with styling preparations, Albert should be there at any time."

"You know?" Alfonso asked curiously, standing beside Hugo.

Hugo followed Alfonso’s gaze and found that Alfonso’s eyes had been staring at Ally. He immediately smiled knowingly, “It’s just a collaboration for the US Weekly, and it’s just a feature shot.” Alfonso immediately understood what Hugo meant, and cast a questioning glance at Hugo. Hugo curled his lips and made a "please" gesture. Alfonso immediately smiled and turned towards Ai. Rei walked in the direction of her, apparently going to come and strike up a conversation.

As soon as Hugo turned his head, his eyes went wrong with Neil and Fujin, and the three of them smiled at each other. Fujin looked around for a while, and asked nervously, "How is this photographer? Very serious?" Listening to Hugo's ridicule just now, it seems that the photographer is not very easy to get along with.

Hugo smiled and patted Fujin on the shoulder, "Don’t worry, Albert is a very glamorous photographer. Just trust his professionalism. This is not something we are good at, even if we can’t do it. Okay, it's normal." Taking pictures and music are completely different things, which makes Fujin a little uneasy. In fact, it's not just Fujin. The band members are in a state of nervousness and expectation.

Albert Watson, the photographer who shot the album cover for Glory to Death today, was one of the top professionals in the early 1990s. He was blind in one eye when he was born and completed his major at the Royal College of Art in London, England. After studying, he became the official photographer of the world's top magazine "Fashion( in the second half of the 1970s.

After choosing New York as his settlement, Albert's photography career has developed rapidly throughout the 1980s. His works are always attracted by relics and ruins. The rich cultural heritage is the most worthy of taste among his works. In the part, people can often understand the era and its meaning through his photographs.

Albert is now one of the top photographers in the industry and is known as one of the most influential photographers in the 20th century. People who want to find him to take photos often have to make an appointment a few months in advance. He took a set of photos this year for a man named Kate Moss, which caused a sensation, but no one knew that the sensation caused by this model was just the beginning.

EMI invited Albert to shoot the album cover for Glory To Death, which is not only an emphasis, but also an interpretation of the album's style positioning. They hope to show the glory of glory to the death music through Albert's lens. A moment with historical imprints. So before taking pictures, EMI first asked Albert to listen to the album master, hoping that Albert could find enough inspiration.

Listening to Hugo’s comfort, Fujin’s tension still didn’t ease too much. Neil stepped forward and patted Fujin’s shoulder. "That heroic expression made Hugo laugh. Neil immediately said, "Look, how relaxed Hugo is. He has experience. We will let him start shooting first and learn to observe." Things are not that bad."

"Yes, it really doesn't work, you can just shoot a backside or blurry image." Hugo's ridicule made Fujin laugh helplessly.

"So, what should we start with?" Neil raised his voice and shouted at Henry not far ahead.

Pedro was standing next to Henry, yelling, "Guys, you see, it looks like Broadway here, are we going to put all these things on our faces?"

Hugo and the others quickly followed. Henry had found a place next to the dressing table and sat down, "I think you should ask the professionals. I have no research on makeup." The appearance of the shopkeeper was not good. I just took a nap here without taking out a ‘wool’ blanket.

For the band members, the dressing table is a completely unfamiliar part. Looking at the dazzling array of makeup products on the table, the scene is really spectacular and dizzying.

At this moment, a man with black eyeliner and enchanting man came by. He skillfully found a round pink'color' box among the countless boxes on the tabletop, and then picked up a round puff next to him. I put it on my right index finger and middle finger, turned to look at the members of the band, "Who will come first?"

The band members didn’t seem to react yet. No one had time to speak. The man who was obviously a makeup artist was a bit impatient. He pointed his finger at Neil, who was closest to him, and said ~www.readwn.com~That Just you, sit down, and I'll make you feel refreshed right away. "

"What is this?" Neal looked at the makeup artist in front of him with a serious face, and pointed to the small box in his hand and asked seriously.

"Foundation." The man with heavy make-up and the "beautiful" wore his puzzlement. This is not a shocking thing, it is the most basic of cosmetics. Why does this band member seem to have done something in front of him? Unforgivable things are so common. "This is just the most basic thing, don't make a fuss, okay?"

Neal looked at the thick makeup of the man in front of him, but he frowned. He even took a short step back. He looked at Henry sitting next to him with a puzzled expression, "Do we have to put on makeup?" It’s not the style of our band, is it?"

In fact, it's not just Neil, Foggin and Pedro frowned slightly, and they were unknowingly combing the makeup artist in front of them. Even Hugo saw the pale foundation of the makeup artist. Some were scared, let alone others.
