The Making of John Mayer's Born and Raised

Here is an 18 minute film by Danny Cooke documenting the creation of John Mayer's Born and Raised album artwork. Mayer works with a multi-talented artist from England, Dave Smithto create a unique and elegant design for Mayer's fifth studio album. You can see immediately from visiting his website how he has a precise eye and a love for Victorian style art and design. This film breaks down the process from video chats between Mayer and Smith, to elaborate preliminary sketches for small details within the album cover. You can also watch as Smith works on some personal glass signs for Mayer, seeing how much work and patience go into such wonderful pieces.

Oh, and there is also a REALLY cute pug that makes a guest appearance. Enjoy and please share!
