Reminding us that presentation matters in every industry, these box sets full of true rock’n’roll (read: liquor) would catch the eye of any jaded DJ.
I knew that I would be dropping off my CD at local radio stations and I wanted to deliver something more than a burned disk with my name written on it. I designed the CD and case to resemble a vinyl album and record sleeve and then sent it to Disc Makers to print and burn. They turned out great! I also created various items to include in the promo box, fun stuff—CD coasters, mini liquor bottles, buttons from Wacky Buttons, posters, etc. I think my favorite part of the whole piece is the filler material that I used for the base—unwound tape from my old cassettes! It looks great and brings it all together.
