I call this design, “River flows“. It’s not because a river flows on it. And definitely not because I was on the side of the river while doing this. Basically, I got the word ‘River‘ from the group band  Rivermaya – a popular rock band from the Philippines, which is actually a proud client of Redmedia (web+events) - where I am currently connected with and doing this for the band. So how about the word “Flows“? well, nothing much to really think about. Dave, one of the master mind of Redmedia suggested to base the design to the current album entitled “Closest thing to Heaven” So my creativity just flowed on it and I set my mind to produce a concrete concept similar to the look and feel of their current album. The design elements should look clean and have  white, green, blue, red and yellow colors in it. So here it is.

Thanks to Lea and Aaron for some helpful critics. And Ethel, a very supportive sister. Love my siblings! Of course! the Redmedia team.

By the way, this is not the approved design. I will post the approved design once it goes online. And tell you some story behind why we need to change and make another option. You will be surprised because the other mockup is a totally different concept from this one. It is a 3 color tone – black, gray and blue green; with grunge style on it. We want to convey and transport to the audience that Rivermaya is a rock band so the team decided to put some touch of “Rockness” on the design.

So, why am I showing this first mockup (even this is not the approved design)? Because of this realization that just popped up into my mind.

Lesson bites: Nothing is wasted if you always give your best shot to every thing you do. (that’s one of my philosophy in life)

Hope you enjoy it!
