my art teacher sees color when she hears music. she also teaches violin and knows if a student is off based on the color she sees. and also her favorite color is the sound of her husbands voice. it’s very interesting
Synaesthesia is pretty whack, as someone who has it I like people more if their voice is a similar colour to a song I like. I'm still looking for someone with a voice the same colour as In My Life, and when I find someone I will marry them istg
Synesthesia is very interesting coming from a person who has it. Basically, music became a vessel for such memories. Heck I can even transport myself back in the time whenever I listen to a particular song. I can visualise memories and ideas, smell a certain smell at that point. It is very weird actually, feels like your on kinda drug or something.
So you mentioned that the title "Ocean Eyes" is quite vague, so I was thinking that maybe you could do The 1975's "I love it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it" because it is very specific! I would be so interested to see what you'd make of it 💞
From the inside of the CD, it says: “Art direction and design Christopher Kornmann at spit and image, nyc; creative direction by Sandy Brummels; original artwork by Imran Khan” :)
To this day, Owl City is still one of my absolute favorites, if only because his writing style for lyrics is so unique. Also, as an Invisalign survivor AND someone who works in the dental field, I promise you get used to it. It sucks when you change trays, but each time it's a little easier to deal with.
I used to listen to this album all the time! Also, it was really cool to hear you talk about these songs since I rarely hear people talk about this album! One more thing, we have the same type of synesthesia!
this video was a wild ride of emotions! just when i thought it looked great, kel would switch it up or change it completely and i just kept alternating between "yes! wait no--oh yeah! no no go back! omg yes perfect! noooo! oh wow!" lmao needless to say i absolutely love the end result so much! i desperately wish i could own merch like that, it's beautiful and a great modernization of the old album!!! 💕
sunburn??? hot air balloon??? vanilla twilight??? all ICONIC. this video made me so happy. :') would love to see you tackle all things bright and beautiful's cover sometime!!
I'm speechless... I'm not an indie style lover and I'd never make something like this, but it made me realize so much how afraid I am of letting go and just designing anything. I always want things to look modern and perfect or something like that. I also have an associates in graphic design, but I can't seem to just design for fun. This made me realize I criticize myself too much and I don't experiment enough... I need get back to design basics of just playing around and having fun...
I was obsessed with this album back in 2015! I went to Africa for my birthday with my cousin that year, and we listened to this album on repeat! It was so great!
I am such a huge fan Kel!! You have inspired me in so many different ways and I look up to you as a role model and someone who will make me happy in a dark time. Your always so perky and sweet and I love your art and designs. I anticipate a new video every second of every day and when one finally comes out I just get a feeling that I can’t express in words. Your so amazing. Keep it up because the whole community appreciates you so much!! We all love you so much!!! Thanks for everything❤️
So awesome to see this album given some love. The album came out when I had just started high school and I absolutely adored Ocean Eyes throughout my first two years or so of high school. My favorite tracks off it were probably Cave In, Umbrella Beach, and The Saltwater Room. I heavily associate music with memories and Cave In always reminds me of overcast days in late spring when I went biking as I frequently listened to it on my MP3 player.
The excitement I got from this video was immense. Owl City has always been one of my favourite artists and barely anyone knows about his other music. I loved this!!!
You make me so excited to push boundaries and learn as much as I can before I go to college for graphic design. Working in graphic design has been a dream of mine since 6th grade and you make me feel like it’s possible 🧡🧡
beautiful! i really feel the vibes of 2000 - 2010 era coming out of this design, with the pink flower and 'tie dye' sort of situation and also love the color scheme!
Your work is seriously insane. I find myself at the beginning of your videos like ‘oh no, what is she thinking!?’ Then it all just comes together and you prove me so wrong every.single.time! You’ve taught me to keep going though, many times I’ll do something similar to you then be like nah that’s not working, but you push through and keep adding effects etc until it looks banging. Thank you so much for all your free online learning!
I LOVE Owl City, when I first heard his music I was 8 years old and I had Ocean Eyes on repeat an unholy amount of times! And now it’s 2020 and I have all his albums in vinyl form and have been to 3 of his concerts! Adam in general is a huge inspiration for me, so seeing you do this honestly fills my heart!!
The way you feel for this album is how I feel for Florence + The Machine's most recent one, High As Hope. I bought it immediately when it came out and it defined my freshman year of highschool. I'm a sophomore now and whenever I listen to the album, I remember the start of my freshman year and the grand memories I had in that small start time period of highschool
I find Lungs to be worse, I don’t think her team understood her vibe at that point and you can definitely see the disconnect watching the Dog Days Are Over music video. How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful is stunning though. Intense and simple. It really complements the music.
This was so cool Kel! I’ve got the classic grapheme-colour synaesthesia so Owl City Ocean Eyes lyrics triggered so many colours when I used to listen to it ages ago. Love your videos!
pleeeease redesign the album art for A Fever You Can't Sweat Out by Panic! At The Disco that album art is cursed considering how amazing the actual music is
You always seem to make an effort to tutorialise something new each video which is greatly appreciated. It feels less like learning when you're just picking up tips from watching someone else enjoy themself.
Okay, I thought was gonna be trash and I couldn’t tell where you were going with it at all until literally the very end when you put the song list on it. Amazing, I actually want like a special album with that art on it.
I'm dedicated to watching all of your design videos all the way through when you post them despite the fact that I have absolutely no knowledge on this kind of stuff and really don't even know what you're talking about most of the time. Something about your videos is so calming, so thank you for that~
I watch almost all of your videos (specially the longer ones) in one sitting, they're so entertaining and give so much insight on your work that it makes me want to hop on illustrator/photoshop and start designing something even though the only thing I know how to do is to download a wallpaper and slap some text on top of it then add some shadow. BAM NAILED IT
Oh, damn. When I first started designing full-time, Owl City was our company's biggest client. It was right at the peak of the Fireflies single. So I was designing like 8-10 shirts for this dude every day, no exaggeration. I've got some weird stories, haha. Anyhow, dope video! 🤙
You have such a calming vibe and your creativity is so inspiring! I love watching your videos when I need a pick-me-up or if I'm feeling really anxious. Could you do an update apartment tour?
please do a video on your fashion style and what has inspired it, how long it took for you to be comfortable in what you wear, what makes you comfortable in trying new fashion things, etc.??
OOOOO synaesthetic representation!! I have chromesthesia and grapheme-colour synaesthesia as well! You explained it so well, people always think I'm on drugs or something
please please do more albums! id love to see a series where you redesign albums from your life like this or base them in the memories you have tied to them? I love your work !
my art teacher sees color when she hears music. she also teaches violin and knows if a student is off based on the color she sees. and also her favorite color is the sound of her husbands voice. it’s very interesting
her favorite color being her husband's voice omfg that is the cutest thing i've ever heard
Synaesthesia is a wild thing
Synaesthesia is pretty whack, as someone who has it I like people more if their voice is a similar colour to a song I like. I'm still looking for someone with a voice the same colour as In My Life, and when I find someone I will marry them istg
Lorde also has Synesthesia

My head: she’s trying her best and just got new brackets
My head: babysitter from the incredibles
I think you’re thinking of the babysitter😂👌🏻
Chris Bouvé cari !! i loved her :)
the babysitter was an icon and deserves a better life
yo i thought the same thing 😂
Chris Bouvé OH NO
"Is this a cursed image?"
*applies it*
"Oh my god it is"
*unapplies it*
it really do be like that
Osa Khoiruzzad oh no you didn’t- um.. it’s tyler the creator. lol
Osa Khoiruzzad racist
This is like watching Bob Ross- just when you think they've ruined it- they end up turning out something incredible
So you mentioned that the title "Ocean Eyes" is quite vague, so I was thinking that maybe you could do The 1975's "I love it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it" because it is very specific! I would be so interested to see what you'd make of it 💞
The lisp, the album, the glasses; this is such intense 12 year old energy I’m dead
@Lucas Guwop I bet your next question is "how are albums 12 year old energy?"
lmao
her glasses are cute though lol
Kali Takumi it’s the specific album
@@thenormalestgirl Yea, that's the point of my comment. OP clearly was talking about those specific glasses.
lmao i went to a maroon 5 concert because owl city was opening and my friends and i left after he was done because we didn't care about maroon 5
i mean is anyone a maroon 5 fan...................
@@KelLauren I like one of their old songs
omfg i would so do this
I did this once when Kesha opened for Pitbull... 😂😂😂
i got mad respect for there older albums like songs about jane and it won’t be soon before long
i thought the cover was a sail boat for years oh my god i really be out here
I've been listening to this album religiously since middle school and I never noticed
Omg me too
It.. wasn't?
this is so nostalgic, had totally forgotten about this album
From the inside of the CD, it says: “Art direction and design Christopher Kornmann at spit and image, nyc; creative direction by Sandy Brummels; original artwork by Imran Khan” :)
omg! thank you so much i stand corrected!
Kel Lauren no I think you did your due diligence looking online! I know how hard it can be to find info from CD inserts online.
You should redesign web browser logos
Definitely didn’t know where you were going with this design but it looks great! Definitely a good source of inspiration! 👍🏽
To this day, Owl City is still one of my absolute favorites, if only because his writing style for lyrics is so unique.

Redesigned would be much more fitting, more accurate and works better with the flow of the song

Bro stop. It’s stuck in my head.
She sounds like Violet from The Incredibles with her new lisp aww

I HAVE TAKEN OUT MY INVISALIGN AND THIS IS THE ALBUM
I was just listening to this album the other day, Vanilla Twilight still SLAPS.
Facts right there Taylor! Still have the same feeling and vibe whenever I play it. Goosebumps and nostalgia.
I used to listen to this album all the time!
Also, it was really cool to hear you talk about these songs since I rarely hear people talk about this album!
One more thing, we have the same type of synesthesia!
yes!! synesthets unite
You definitely gotta do more album covers!
ive considered a few! i think billie eilish's album art/single art could use a revisit................
Do pure heroine by lorde

i honestly love your aesthetic so much
I was today years old when I learned that the album cover for Ocean Eyes does not have a sailboat on it

we out here ~~vibin~~
I just binged all the redesigning videos in her channel, her vibe is absolutely fantastic 👏🏻 congrats
The excitement I got from this video was immense. Owl City has always been one of my favourite artists and barely anyone knows about his other music. I loved this!!!
LOVE this. this style has been one of my faves lately. every time you added a new element i was like 'omg yes that's a good idea'
I’m sooooo happy you uploaded something to help my quarantine.
You make me so excited to push boundaries and learn as much as I can before I go to college for graphic design. Working in graphic design has been a dream of mine since 6th grade and you make me feel like it’s possible 🧡🧡
Literally one of the most important albums to me. Thank you so so so very much
beautiful! i really feel the vibes of 2000 - 2010 era coming out of this design, with the pink flower and 'tie dye' sort of situation and also love the color scheme!
You’d could KILL a tame impala album cover redesign
I've never been more excited for one of your redesigns!
This is my favourite album of all time, Adam young is a pure legend.
Your work is seriously insane. I find myself at the beginning of your videos like ‘oh no, what is she thinking!?’ Then it all just comes together and you prove me so wrong every.single.time! You’ve taught me to keep going though, many times I’ll do something similar to you then be like nah that’s not working, but you push through and keep adding effects etc until it looks banging.

I LOVE Owl City, when I first heard his music I was 8 years old and I had Ocean Eyes on repeat an unholy amount of times! And now it’s 2020 and I have all his albums in vinyl form and have been to 3 of his concerts! Adam in general is a huge inspiration for me, so seeing you do this honestly fills my heart!!
this album was my everything when I was in middle school !! bless you for doing this
seeing your video pop up every month brings joy to my heart! Cant wait for your next video and your awesome designs! :)
This was beautiful, so interesting too see the process too never seen someone design like this, very iconic
i was hesitant about this design but adding the tracklist really help pulled it together. This would make such a cool poster too.
The way you feel for this album is how I feel for Florence + The Machine's most recent one, High As Hope. I bought it immediately when it came out and it defined my freshman year of highschool. I'm a sophomore now and whenever I listen to the album, I remember the start of my freshman year and the grand memories I had in that small start time period of highschool
About a year ago I went through a phase where I listened to nothing but Florence + the machine and ocean eyes and I do not regret it
I find Lungs to be worse, I don’t think her team understood her vibe at that point and you can definitely see the disconnect watching the Dog Days Are Over music video.
How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful is stunning though. Intense and simple. It really complements the music.
@Oliva Reynolds I love her
@@vi4440 neither do I. Florence was my top artist of the decade on Spotify
I am very grateful for you reminding me of this album
Turned out very ｖａｐｏｒｗａｖｅ'y
im starting to think people dont know what vaporwave is haha
@@KelLauren if theres a colorful gradient its vaporwave. no, if i think it looks cool its vaporwave.
I love you and you inspire me to go into graphic design ❤️
this made me listen to ocean eyes over and over again
it's so hard to find a friend that listens to him too, especially till today! so I'm happy to see us all gathered here :)
I feel like doing this was perfect for the way ur mind works :)
The Saltwater Room, Vanilla Twilight, and Hello Seattle were some of my faves!!
This was so cool Kel! I’ve got the classic grapheme-colour synaesthesia so Owl City Ocean Eyes lyrics triggered so many colours when I used to listen to it ages ago. Love your videos!
pleeeease redesign the album art for A Fever You Can't Sweat Out by Panic! At The Disco
that album art is cursed considering how amazing the actual music is
Missy Frakes I just looked that up. It is cursed.
When you try to reassemble the legs to match and end up failing miserably 😓
as if that album cover is as cursed as the music and it’s perfect
I love that album cover ngl
The trust you seem to have into your creativity is so inspiring!
You always seem to make an effort to tutorialise something new each video which is greatly appreciated. It feels less like learning when you're just picking up tips from watching someone else enjoy themself.
Kel Lauren back at it with the premium longform content in our hour of need
an album cover that is truly rough is fiona apple's when the pawn. i'd love to see someone redesign it lol
Actually most of her album covers are kinda cursed lmao
Your style is so different than mine. Watching you design things helps me think outside of the box.
Okay, I thought was gonna be trash and I couldn’t tell where you were going with it at all until literally the very end when you put the song list on it. Amazing, I actually want like a special album with that art on it.

Lol, this is something for “graphic design is my passion” XD
omg please redesign more album covers!!!! LOVED THIS ONE
This is like a class of how to TRUST THE PROCESS cause like until the ending I was like oh no she’s going insane AND THEN MASTERPIECE FUCK
Oh, damn. When I first started designing full-time, Owl City was our company's biggest client. It was right at the peak of the Fireflies single. So I was designing like 8-10 shirts for this dude every day, no exaggeration. I've got some weird stories, haha. Anyhow, dope video! 🤙
that’s insane, i would love to exchange stories! we all got some from artists haha
i recently added vanilla twilight into the playlist i play while i’m driving and every time it comes on i head bang bc it slaps so much
You have such a calming vibe and your creativity is so inspiring! I love watching your videos when I need a pick-me-up or if I'm feeling really anxious. Could you do an update apartment tour?
That album meant so much to me when I was in middle school. ❤️
Your content is so interesting to me because our design styles are basically polar opposites, but I love seeing your process.
Morgan Hampton oh my gosh same! I can totally appreciate her style but it’s completely different from mine.
i like the lisp i think its cute..... also i really dig the vintage look of your designs!!!!!
the final outcome is giving succhh late 2000's vibesssss fucking love 😍😍
please do a video on your fashion style and what has inspired it, how long it took for you to be comfortable in what you wear, what makes you comfortable in trying new fashion things, etc.??
the 69 got me - once again an amazing vid
Hey, Kel! Gotta say to you you're giving me a needed peaceful time in this quaratine. Thanks so much for your amazing & personal & inspiring videos.
Owl city was the first artist I ever properly listened to and seeing this just made me really happy. You did an amazing job !!
Turned out so good! I'd legit buy that album cover t-shirt right now. Still one of my favorite albums to this day!
kelly omg you talking takes me back to when i first got my retainer earlier this year! it’s endearing though 💓
OOOOO synaesthetic representation!! I have chromesthesia and grapheme-colour synaesthesia as well! You explained it so well, people always think I'm on drugs or something
liked another font for "ocean eyes" better, but it's an amazing job
Your particular disorder actually compliments your artistry so well. Thats pretty cool.
Incredible! When you turned the flower pink I was like 👁👄👁
This was great! I'd love to see more album redesigns!!
Loved it Kel! More album covers please, it's very fun and inspiring to watch :) looking forward for your next videos x
You could try redesigning school textbooks!! Love your vids btw!!
THIS VIDEO was a journey, i feel like i saw so many cool album covers during the process, but the end result was amazing!
THIS CAME OUT SO GOOD! You are one of my favorite RUclipsrs and I hope you know that your work is so beautiful:)
LOOOOVE your videos so much!! So helpful x
please please do more albums! id love to see a series where you redesign albums from your life like this or base them in the memories you have tied to them? I love your work !
0:15 Quite fitting as their album has a song called 'Dental Care' 😁
The design is so freaking cool. It definitely has that Owl City vibe!
This album is my childhood favourite, especially Vanilla Twilight. Glad to see Kel redesign the album cover art.
Love your videos, loved owl city so much growing up, a christian kids fav album
this video is the definition of trust the process
I bought a model of the Burj Al Arab when I was in Dubai because of this album. Umbrella Beach and Tip of the Iceberg are my favorites!
AH. Yes. Tip of the Iceberg is the bEST. That section 'Rivulets flow from your eyes' is so beautiful
wow i loved your take on it! so cool to see your process and final mock-ups; this is rly pushing me to study graphic design in college
shes trying not to laugh at her adorable lisp. adorableness compounds
