I was browing the House Industries blog and came across this.  I haven't watched this myself yet, but it sounds cool.

GREAT VIDEO for the book that explains how some [of] the best LP covers were designed before the days of Photoshop. For the Love of Vinyl, The Album Art of Hipgnosis.

Dang, I was hoping there'd be more technical bits.  Anyway, I love how they actually set up all this stuff and did it for real.  The hardest, but most real way to go.  Like the Floyd Animals cover, which even back then they could've stripped in on film, but no let's actually float a pig in the sky.  Too cool.
