Album Cover




this is our final idea for our album cover, it very sleek and simple with the use of the all caps lock and similar font link all the titles together. The dashes draw the eye instantly into the artisits name as it is at the start of the 'zed effect' as the eyes of the audience draw a 'z' shape on the image and by also adding the dashes either side it makes the audience look at it for longer.
The colouring of the image is very light and warm, the composition work well on the page, the audience can clearly see the narrative of how this artist is using the character on the image into his music. The balloons again represents the main logo of the artist, and again having the link between the print products and the music video making it a iconic image for this artist, the two balloons represent both her love and her partners love that is shown throughout the video. It looks as if the girl is looking out into the horizon which signifies she is reflecting and the fact the album title "the root of memories" is placed out into the different suggests she is looing onto these memories.
The colours on the image contrast against each other the light and warm colours of the scenery aginst the blues and the reds the character and the props are make each of the colours on the image stand out.

  1. I think this is really good - the only issue really is the colour of the balloon and the very pixelated quality of the image (I assume this is to do with the upload, because I recall the actual image was a lot clearer?)

  2. The crucial thing to do next is to make sure that you consider both the design process which led you to this design and the actual CD covers which either inspired it or which you are subverting. What direct evidence do you have that this is approrpriate - how can you back up your assertions? Can you link to deveopmental planning/ drafts etc.?
