Title: Post fan-made artwork for ADTOE!
Post by: ariich on June 07, 2011, 04:52:50 PM: As always happens, now that we have a new album title, people start creating fan-made artwork for it, so I thought it would be good to have one thread for it all! :D

I'll be moving posts from the stickied album into this one.

Post by: wasteland on June 09, 2011, 11:26:51 AM: First FANMADE artwork I have found inspired by the album title / tracklist.

Created By JohnPetrucci88 on dreamtheater.forumcommunity.net

I dig it, it's quite beautiful, especially the cloudy background and the central black-hole/gravitational lens. Maybe the white wings are a little cheesy, but they are not really out of place, so they don't bother me.
Actually, I feel that the real artwork will too feature some kind of space object or enviroment (but, hey, I'm not aniland, so you should not believe to what I foresee lightly :lol).

And sorry for the huge "fanmade", I just wanted to prevent someone from having a heart attack or anything ;)

I agree on this point (it is time to make a change, we've had enough artwork with this style), yet the effort by the original artist is IMO to be praised, and the final result is actually something you won't recognise in the very first place as a fake cover art.

Post by: BlackInk on June 09, 2011, 02:38:37 PM: I like that cover, it's artistic in a way and has meaning. Unfortunately it has no connection to the title or at least the meaning of this title. Thou it would work if by "A Dramatic Turn of Events" they ment the industrialization over the last century, but I don't see any reason for that.

well.. i guess the nuclear plants are more a reference to the earthquake, tsunami and later nuclear tragedy in Japan.. which for sure can be related to "a Dramatic turn of events"

I didn't see any relation to Japan in that picture. Perhaps if the nuclear plant looked similar to the one in Japan that would help? Or a wall of water of something?

This one reminds me very strongly of ACOS. If "Another World" (ACOS V) were to have an artwork by itself, this one would be more than perfect. It fits the mood and the lyrics very well :)

Post by: rumborak on June 09, 2011, 03:30:44 PM: Other bands have done it before, but a photograph of a surface full of newspaper snippets and photos, all jumbled over each other, would be cool. That would work with the album title.

I really like it Steve, but I think it would fit better for a band like Alterbridge, not so much DT.

True... but I wanted to something else this time. It was only 2 hours of work. ;D

As a Titanic enthusiest. I am liking the one with the ship sinking and the survivours rowing away in the lifeboats.

Me too. Obsessed with it. I think it's a past-life thing.
Make the people rowing away DT and have a certain ex-member floating in the sea and it would be perfect.

I wanted all disney characters and when I couldn't find a ninja, I went with the smoke cloud blur shot effect.

Thanks guys. :biggrin:

You could have used a bad guy from Mulan. They're not ninjas, but they're asian. :azn:

EDIT: Oh, I guess I missed that other post about Mulan.

Great work as usual Zydar. I'd only put the name of the band and album title on the usual place (up) because there's too much sky. Half picture is empty.

Nevertheless, beautiful image and concept.

Imo, the large shot of the sky is what makes the image look so appealing. I say keep the logo on the bottom.

Ack! Gonna disagree, but then again I have a bit of an obsession with the London Underground aesthetic. It feels ancient and brand new at the same time, which I really like. And which really applies to the album. Plus the logo gives an extra focal point, not to mention that it adds a sense of scale - this isn't some outdated ruin, this is a capital city. Big Ben alone, I'd argue, is too subtle a signifier.

Really dig the art.

I like this one. I particularly love the font of the album title.

In regards to easter eggs... I only see the Octavarium balls. My eyes are no good.

8 - 5 = 3

3 sided sign = yield

Yield - To give forth by or as if by a natural process, especially by CULTIVATION

Field is behind Yield.

I'd put the clown on a silver balloon (8VM style) and the Majesty symbol on the sign. Maybe the album title at the bottom also.

Post by: JaredWard on June 15, 2011, 12:31:43 AM: The reason to include the door is continuity I guess but the cover could go a lot of places. If you notice there's a blue sky outside the door (BC&SL) so that's why I went with blueish skies for both designs :) included the lightning to represent the "dramatic turn" but I might add more things. I couldn't find a decent picture of a kid to put in the door though lol but ah well... glad you guys are digging it.

Incidentally - and I toyed with the idea of posting this as a thread back when the album title was first revealed - I came up with a fun game the whole family can play.

https://www.mendolaart.com/portfolio/0/63/5294/hugh_syme/0/

Dead easy - all you have to do is flick through Hugh Syme's portfolio and slap a logo and a title onto one of the pictures.

Extra points for scarring the top or the bottom with a gigantic black bar, a la Octavarium and Systematic Chaos.

Different direction from these really busy ones. I really didn't want to use the majesty logo but I know people would be like "but the majesty logo!" so I added the 5 stars, representative of the members of the band.... lame I know.

Love it :tup

I actually kinda like that. The band needs to do something dramatically different like that.
They don't need to do anything, but I do absolutely love that cover! Can't see DT doing something quite that simple though.

Now this is the story all about how
Portnoy tried to join back, but they turned him down
And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the drummer of Dream Thea-tair

In Berklee college, born and raised
Teaching music is where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
And blasting those drum fills throughout the school
When a couple of guys, rang and said I was good
Invited me to join their prog-metal hood
I packed my bags and was right over there
They said "Mangini, welcome, to Dream Thea-tair

Different from place to place.

In the UK, the top charts are released on a sunday, so albums and singles are traditionally released on mondays in order to give them the best opening week possible.

In the US, Billboard presumably updates on mondays, as album releases have defaulted to tuesdays. And then in parts of mainland Europe (Germany, Austria for instance) and I believe Australia (though I could be wrong!), the album will come out on a friday.

So there are likely to be quite a few release dates.

DE: September 9th
UK: September 12th
US: September 13th

I think if they like an image and contact the author, and they agree, they can use it. It's just a matter of communication. But of course, they'll pay a professional to do it, and that professional has his or her routine and known sources, so this is highly improbable.

Since Portnoy is now gone, they no longer have to walk around going " Yes, your MAJESTY ".

Great job!

I'd put the clown on a silver balloon (8VM style) and the Majesty symbol on the sign. Maybe the album title at the bottom also.

Better? ;)

Or maybe as part of the 8vm balloon:

Most triumphant! :metalol:

Now this is the story all about how
Portnoy tried to join back, but they turned him down
And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the drummer of Dream Thea-tair

In Berklee college, born and raised
Teaching music is where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
And blasting those drum fills throughout the school
When a couple of guys, rang and said I was good
Invited me to join their prog-metal hood
I packed my bags and was right over there
They said "Mangini, welcome, to Dream Thea-tair

It's a time signature. The joke is that Dream Theater always use odd time signatures, and the Dramatic Turn Of Events is that the album uses 4/4 time signature, which is as basic as they come. It speaks for itself really.

Great work as usual Zydar. I'd only put the name of the band and album title on the usual place (up) because there's too much sky. Half picture is empty.

Nevertheless, beautiful image and concept.

Post by: Kotowboy on June 29, 2011, 07:04:45 AM: Definitely want something in that vein ^.

Octavarium is my favourite DT album / cover.

Something about the airy cover totally fits the mood of the album.

Also, it will be a nice contrast to the black cover / dark nature of the last album :)

;) I knew somebody would do that... I like the cover. It's simple and it has that ''less is more'' feeling like the Octavarium cover.
So I assume it's from Hugh Syme again. Not sure 'bout the perspective of the majesty symbol though... looks off.

I just don't get what purpose that plane serves in the picture. Looks as if it's there just to provide some space for the majesty logo to be put onto. The freedom and openness of being high up in the sky would be emphasized more without it IMO.

Still.. I love clowns, so no reason to complain for me ;D

This, I totally agree. I saw tons of much better artworks on DTF than offcial ADTOE cover, even if I like the sky and the man on the rope and the beautiful HD clouds, it is a must to admit that we can find better ones here ;)

In fairness, Steve has worked for Dream Theater.

I would say that Hugh Syme is, to his credit, a little more consistent than Steve, but given that Hugh's been doing it for decades, it's hard not to be floored by how often Steve aces it - and sometimes exceeds Syme's stuff. It's amazing that there's even a comparison, let alone how well they hold up against each other. Stellar stuff.

It's supposed to be a poor representation of Monsters, Inc. getting out of the Pixar Survivor earlier than I expected. The troll faces added extra flavor.

Well thank you, those are kind words.
Here is my latest creation. I was inspired by the picture below. I had to make the guy's body more feminine using ''Puppet Warp'' (awesome tool in photoshop CS5). Sky, rocks, lightning, wings, sea and woman's head are all separate images. The rain and splashes I made myself with some psd tricks. And a dozen of other things which I will not tell. ;)
