Album Cover Redesign

For this project, I reimagined the album cover for The Long Run by the Eagles, their final studio album before their 1980 breakup. Drawing from the album’s darker, more cynical themes of fame, disillusionment, and perseverance, I created a design that blends Art Deco and noir aesthetics.

The concept for this redesign draws inspiration from 1950s Hollywood films. The front cover pays homage to classic title cards, aligning with the album’s exploration of Hollywood’s darker side. The back cover mirrors the style of vintage ending credits, reinforcing the album’s themes of disillusionment and decline.

This cinematic approach builds on the Eagles’ original design, offering a refined visual evolution that deepens the connection to the album’s tone and story.
