Title and artwork
The album is named after a character the band created called Blurryface. According to Joseph, he "represents all the things that I as an individual, but also everyone around, are insecure about."{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx44NMDN0ws |title=Twenty One Pilots Explain Why Their Album Is Called "Blurry Face" - MTV News |publisher=YouTube |date=April 28, 2015|access-date=May 18, 2015}} Joseph wears black paint on his hands and neck during his live shows and music videos for the album, to represent Blurryface, saying: "Very dramatic, I know, but it helps me get into that character."{{Cite web |last=Ehrlich |first=Brenna |date=April 28, 2015 |title=Um, Why Is The Dude From Twenty One Pilots Covered In Black Goo? |url=http://www.mtv.com/news/2145391/twenty-one-pilots-blurry-face-stressed-out-video/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150430072843/http://www.mtv.com/news/2145391/twenty-one-pilots-blurry-face-stressed-out-video/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=April 30, 2015 |website=MTV News}}
Art direction and design was done by Brandon Rike, Mark Eshleman (of Reel Bear Media), and Virgilio Tzaj. Rob Gold was the art manager, while Josh Skubel was in charge of packaging production. Jabari Jacobs provided photography. On his blog, Rike mentions the different feel of the artwork compared to that of Vessel and how the red on Blurryface is "the color of passion, violence, and anger", although the band is famous for their content being open to interpretation.{{Cite web |url=http://brandonrike.com/behind-blurryface |title=Behind Blurryface | Brandon Rike |access-date=November 10, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161118112023/http://brandonrike.com/behind-blurryface |archive-date=November 18, 2016 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}
