Uni 306 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I think the SL cover is much more fitting to the overall milieu you're going for. It was, after all, the last score he won an Oscar for, and still considered by many to be one of his finest works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 That's because that's the UK/international version that has "Philosopher's Stone" on the cover, too.Yours is the US version, a.k.a Potter for dummies who don't know what the Philosopher's Stone is.But if the content is the same, it's an incorrect label. All the music is from the film, not inspired by. Though I guess technically it is inspired by the film, but that phrase usually means there's stuff in the album not in the film.

There are some bits from The Children's Suite, which was not from but inspired by the film. Once again, the international version is more correct than its US counterpart! Exactly.

All film music is inspired by the film—among other things, no doubt. Should we insist on full disclosure? I think soundtrack albums should have labels that say things like, "MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE MOTION PICTURE, AND AN EVENING WALK ALONG THE THAMES, AND A BIT OF QUALITY CANNIBIS, AND THE COMPOSER'S DESIRE NOT TO GET FIRED.

Mattris 416 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Maybe you could take advantage of the Harry Potter and Jaws black borders by moving them to the right side of the display. You could then cover their borders by the covers that fill the pages (Close Encounters, Schindler's List).And I stand by my opinion that the CD makes the display look unprofessional and awkward.

Quintus 5,399 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Harry Potter's headlining is wrong (it's one of Williams' lesser franchises) and Close Encounters being almost entirely obscured is bad if you ask me. It looks messy.Also, from afar it looks like the Jaws font and the Potter image are a part of some kind of strange bastard of a crossover movie.

King Mark 3,624 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Well, it's kind of meant as a "montage" where things overlap. All the covers are leveled though and I did my best to place them in the best way possible.But I'll probably get tired of seeing it in 2 weeks anyways. I was kind of just messing around and I had that idea while taking a walk .That frame is meant to hold a LP. At first I was just going to buy a used copy of the Jaws OST LP and stick it in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 4,070 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 It looks kinda cool, but honestly, the overlapping bothers my OCD. You could find high res images of these online and photoshop them such that there'd be better alignment. Then get it professionally printed. You could even scan the CD and add that too. Then your booklets could go back in their cases. Don't your CDs feel naked without them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
