FAQ
-
Why is an album cover important?
If you want your album to be successful, don’t be afraid to take risks. Be ready to spend a lot of time creating cover art, because it is the ultimate marketing tool. Listeners see the cover before they listen to the music. Later on, this cover will be associated with songs from the album and convey more sentimental meaning to fans. Want to simplify your design process? Find plenty of easy-to-use design tools in the VistaCreate album cover maker and channel your creativity. -
Where can one find inspiration for album art?
We won’t surprise you by telling you to browse Instagram, Pinterest, and other major social media platforms. But we know one more place full of genius ideas — your brain! Inspiration comes from within. When designing an album cover, try to use key concepts from the music first. Turn to social media if it’s too challenging, or simply look for references to make abstract art. If your inner album cover creator doesn’t have any ideas today, then no worries! Go to the VistaCreate album cover maker and discover hundreds of design ideas for any music style.
