THE DIRECTION | LAY ZHANG | Music Album Cover Design
Unreal Engine 5 | Dall.E | Stable Diffusion | Photoshop | AfteEffects
Inspired by Lay’s singles “Rise,” “Breath,” and “Spotlight” and the theme of epic voyages, I designed this album cover. It features a flying ship that’s half castle, half ship, drawing on Leonardo da Vinci’s fantastical manuscripts. Blending classical and modern art with a Steampunk twist, the design evokes an epic journey while remaining universally appealing.
为张艺兴的新 EP，我与Jeff的团队合作创作了一系列视觉方案。我们通过创意碰撞寻找最佳灵感，确保作品与张艺兴的艺术风格和音乐精神相契合。
