Night Swim Hollow Static - Black & White Aesthetic Text Effect
Uses OpenAI GPT-Image-2.5 Sunburst, the model behind this artwork · 15 credits
"Night Swim" is an album cover for the act Hollow Static, in a moody black-and-white film-grain portrait style. A close crop of a woman's wet face half in shadow, with rain streaks and tear trails, sits on the right, while the white condensed serif title and small wide-spaced artist name are stacked at left. Remake it with your own album title, artist name and a different portrait.
Create a finished square black-and-white album cover for the band “Hollow Static,” titled “Night Swim.” A large, tightly cropped manga-ink close-up of an anonymous face fills the right two-thirds of the cover, turned slightly toward the viewer; one half of the face disappears into crushed black shadow. Fine ink hatching and dotted screentone shade the lit cheek and brow. Dense vertical screentone rain passes in front of the face, with a few bright white rain streaks and wet highlights. Use only pure black, white, and greys. A hard single-source side light carves the face out of darkness; add visible film grain across the image and a soft dark vignette at the corners. Keep the left side mostly deep black, calm and uncluttered as negative space. Set “Night Swim” there as the main title in crisp, high-contrast compressed serif capitals and lowercase, with sharp unbracketed serifs and clean white letterforms; keep it restrained but clearly readable. Place “Hollow Static” below it, smaller and widely tracked in matching white serif lettering. Align both lines to the same left edge. The portrait and rain are the visual hero; the lettering is quiet against the dark space. Exact text only: “Night Swim” and “Hollow Static.” No extra words, logos, borders, or color accents.
