Lapho i-Vinyl yayinkosi
I-albhamu ye-albhamu engokoqobo ayifaki nje ukuchaza i-albhamu, ichaza inkathi, isizukulwane futhi, kwezinye izimo, yonke uhlobo lomculo.
Ngezinye izikhathi benza konke okukhona, okuyiyona inkampani ye-The Beatles ' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club , ebheka ukuthi ikhava ye-albhamu edume kakhulu eyake yenziwa, ukufaka uhlu lwezingubo eziphezulu ezingamashumi amabili nanhlanu. Isembozo se-albhamu esiqashelwa kakhulu esibonisa ukuhlonishwa kwezimbalwa eziningana nezinye izithombe kwadalwa nguJann Haworth noPeter Blake, owathola ngo-1967 umklomelo we-Grammy we-Best Album Cover: Ubuciko bokubonisa umsebenzi wabo kuwo. Futhi, ngenkathi izindleko zingenziwanga umphakathi, kuthiwa ngaleso sikhathi, kwakukhona ikhava ye-albhamu ebiza kakhulu kunazo zonke ezenziwe.
Izindwangu eziningi ze-albhamu ezingakhohlwayo ezingama-60 no-70s zakuqala zaziyizithombe eziphezulu ezivezwe yizici ezidumile ze-graphic ezifana ne-Argument and Roger Dean, owasebenza endlini kaRoxy Music. Umsebenzi wabo wawuyizithombe ezimnandi, kufana nesibhamu se-50s kunesivalo se-albhamu futhi beyala izindleko zangaphakathi endlini namhlanje njengamaholo ayisithupha.
Umholo Wemiholo
Namuhla, abaklami besikhombi se-albhamu (abakha ubuciko bendatshana nokuhlelwa kwe-LPs nama-CD) bathola umholo olinganiselwa ku-$ 48,000, nakuba uhla lwemali jikelele luyahlukahluka kakhulu.
Imiholo ingadlulela ku-$ 150,000, noma ngaphezulu, ngokusekelwe ekuhlangenwe nakho, iphothifoliyo ethuthukile, nokuthi ngabe umklami uveza umsebenzi kumculi owaziwa noma cha. I-Freelance designer's (enezinkampani zamakhasimende akhethiwe) angazuza ekupheleni okuphezulu kwesilinganiso, njengoba umklami angasebenza ngaphakathi endlini uma kungokwesebuli enkulu efana ne-Universal Music Group noma i-Sony Music Entertainment.
Abasebenzi ngokumelene ne-Freelancer
Abakhiqizi abaningi bezithombe abasebenza njengama-freelancers baqashiwe ukuklama ubuciko bekhava ngephrojekthi ngayinye. Uma ufuna ukusebenza njengomklami wezithombe ezizimele, uzodinga ukwakha iphothifoliyo yakho engasho ukuthatha ukwenza amaphrojekthi akho okuqala noma izaphulelo ezikhululekile kuze kube yilapho unayo iphothifoliyo ebeka wena uhlobo lokukhokha ama-gigs oyifunayo. Uma amaklayenti akho ejabula ngomsebenzi wakho, cishe uzothola ibhizinisi elisha ngokudluliselwa. Abadwebi bezithombe abasebenza isikhathi esigcwele endlini bayeka amathuba okuba nemali emihle ngokushintshanisa imali ekhokhelwayo.
I-Design Process
I-albhamu yomklami we-albhamu ayiklami kuphela futhi / noma ibonisa ubuciko obukukhava ye-albhamu kodwa kaningi kunalokho, ingabe isakhiwo sonke, kuhlanganise nesembozo sangemuva, faka noma ibhukwana, ishidi le-lyric, i-CD ebhalwe ngokucophelela, njll. ngokuvamile bahlakulele isibopho ngezibopho abazisebenzelayo, bathole ukwethemba kwabo, futhi bahlanganyele nabo esikhathini eside kanye nama-albhamu amaningi.
Ngokuvamile, umklami uhlangana nomculi ukuxoxa ngemibono yabo. Ngezinye izikhathi umculi unomqondo othuthukile walokho abafuna ukudalwa futhi ngezinye izikhathi abanalo umqondo noma umqondo nhlobo futhi kuze kube yilabo abakubuciko bokudweba ubuciko ukuza nemibono.
Uma isiqondiso esiyisisekelo siqondakala, umklami uqala uchungechunge lwezimvo ezinzima ukuze abonise iqembu. Ukusuka lapho, umklami ulungisa umqondo wabo wokuqala futhi emva kokuhlelwa (okulindelekile) okulandelanayo emuva nangenqubo abayilandelayo ekuklanyeni kwekhava.
Ngokuvamile, uma umklami esebenza isikhathi eside esebenzela ibhendi, intuitive kakhulu lesi sinyathelo siyaba. Abaqambi bavame ukusebenza nomculi ngokuqondile, nakuba kungavamile ukuthi ilebuli ibe njengesixhumanisi. Ngezinye izikhathi ngamalebula amakhulu, abaphathi bokukhiqiza, amaphrinta, nabanye abakhiqizi bangase bahileleke. Abancane umculi, noma ngaphezulu abazimele, abantu abambalwa umklami osebenza nabo. Le nqubo ifana ngokufanayo lapho isebenza endlini.
Kunezikhathi lapho ilebuli yokurekhoda noma abaculi ngokwayo babe nemibono ecacile mayelana nokuthi bafuna kanjani i-albhamu yabo kanye nezinye izinto zokuthengisa ukuze zibuke.
Bangase babe nezithombe noma imiklamo engqondweni, futhi kungenzeka ukuthi banqume kukho konke kusuka kwimibala yezinhlamvu kuya kumacebo ombala. Kulesi simo, umklami uphethe ukubeka umbono wezobuciko beklayenti wabo-ngokujwayelekile usebenzisa isofthiwe yokuklama imidwebo-futhi ukuyifaka efomeni elifanele ukuba linikezwe ekukhiqizeni.
Imfundo Nokuqeqesha
Ngenkathi isikole singewo wonke umuntu, abaningi abaqambi bekhava ye-albhamu bavame ukuqeqeshwa kwi-Fine Arts noma i-Graphic Design futhi bazama ukungena ezikhungweni ezihloniphekile njengeRhode Island School Design and CalArts eLos Angeles. Ukubaluleka kokuqeqeshwa nokufunda ngempela imishini akukwazi ukunqunywa.
Ukuthuthuka
Izinsuku zabaqambi bezinkanyezi ze-rock star kakhulu zafika zahamba nama-70s. Yilapho i-vinyl yayinkosi. Lezi zinsuku, abaklami abaningi bayahlukahluka ngoba umculi angadinga futhi logo, isakhiwo se-T-shirts, ama-backdrops kanye nokunye ubuciko bokuklama ukusekela izinkambo zabo.
