This production schedule outlines the tasks to be completed over 6 weeks to create a CD cover for a fictional music artist. Week 1 involves introducing the project, researching artists and record labels, and developing ideas for a new artist. Week 2 focuses on location scouting, permissions, and legal/ethical issues. Weeks 3-5 are dedicated to photographing the artist, editing photos, and designing the front, back and inside covers. The final week involves creating a poster to promote the album.
