The Making of Blueprint 3 Cover

This is the footage of the creative process of making the "Blueprint 3" cover. The London based photographer Dan Tobin Smith was the visionary who made a previous artwork called "The Letter E" which inspired this artwork for this Blueprint album cover.

Here is an excerpt of the interview with Dan Tobin Smith about the Blueprint 3 cover from Itsnicethat and the photo of "The Letter E":

Greg Burke, the creative director on the project at Atlantic records had seen the Letter ‘E’ I had shot with the set designer Nicola Yeoman and I guess he had it in the back of his mind when he was thinking of ideas for Jay Z’s new artwork for Blueprint 3. I think Greg and Jay Z had lots of ideas about what the album meant and it seemed to be about taking it back to the source, in terms of the music itself and then subsequently the artwork. For the album and the idea was it was very much about the music and all the things that make music. The 3 is represented by 3 bars which is of course the old way of writing ‘3’ so that seemed to work really nicely with the idea behind the album and the set design that evolved. We all liked the idea that the installation was almost machine like, like all these things were interlinked. That’s why everything is packed and jumbled together. Like it had kind of grown out of this corner.

I think it was a brave approach for Jay Z as all his previous albums have had him on them. I love still life, and the way I shoot is quite old school. It took 3 days to shoot, was all shot on 10×8 inch film, so the quality in the whites is fantastic, so much subtle tone. We worked long and hard on the colour work on the post and even in a single page mag advert I can see that effort. You could blow the image up to the size of a building and it would still hold up. It seems the album is about that old school crafted production so its nice that that same method went into the shoot.

Jay-z "Blueprint 3" Official Cover X Track List

The CD cover and track list seems to be officially completed for Jay-z's "Blueprint 3". The artwork for this cover is dope and, if you are a Jay-z fan, you noticed that this is the first cover without a picture of him on it. As for the track list, I am looking forward to hearing the tracks with Nas, Drake, and Kid Cudi. The production should be classic since he is only working with Kanye, NO .I.D, and Timbaland.
