CHILLAMUNDOPAPER AIRPLANE was voted top 5 albums of 2018 by The Fort Worth Weekly
McAlister contributed guitar, vocals, album artwork, video production, promotional merchandise, and press kit deliverables
The collaborations delivered with Denver Williams, Caleb Stanislaw, Peter Weirenga, Jordan Richardson, Ben Cook, and Dylan Ewen provide an exquisite snapshot of Fort Worth art in 2018. McAlister’s capacity to co-manage the project with Williams was essential to its success. The tireless effort brought a ready hand to daunting deadlines.
This project and its assets represent some of McAlister’s most authentic works designed to accompany the spirit and attitude of the musical art being generated by CHILLAMUNDO.
PAPER AIRPLANE Album Cover – McAlister's photo collage depicts all members of the band adorned by Williams's lettering. See if you can find them all!
PAPER AIRPLANE CD (Back) – A more psychedelic, colorful photo collage, also depicting all members of the band.
PAPER AIRPLANE LP Insert (Front) – Ben Cook's eyeball octopus certainly steals the show here. McAlister hand wrote the entirety of the lyrics appearing in Paper Airplane, with special emphasis on the italics in "Hellfire". Planning for the allotted space was an abject challenge readily handled.
PAPER AIRPLANE LP Insert (Back) – In this collaboration with Ben Cook, McAlister's hand lettering, layout, and design filled in the "Vetruvian Paper Airplane" design imagined by Williams, and designed by Cook. Bonus: the arrows accurately produce a paper airplane
PAPER AIRPLANE CD (Insert) – Simple, washed out backdrop for Williams's handwritten credits with original album concept design transparency.
