FINAL Album Cover


These two images are our final images for our album cover. From the previous images we have posted on our blog the images were too saturated which made our balloons a pinky colour, we wanted them to be more of a brighter red like the red we have on our music video, we changed this on photoshop because we wanted it to be exactly like the balloons in our music video. We didn't want to lose the effect of the striking image because of the really good quality, we used the 'z' effect by putting the album name and artist in the top left corner which is where the audience's eye goes to straight away, we kept the font simple and small so the image was still the main focus. We kept the writing plain and black so it wouldn't contrast with the blue sky but so it would stand out on top of it. We have used a transparent sticker in the bottom left hand corner because when researching other album work they have usually used a clear sticker, we wanted to use this so again it wouldn't take any focus off the the image but we wanted it to be noticable still. We have used the same font of the album name and artist so it all links together, we wanted to use the song we have used in the music video to promote the album as this would be the first song the audience know about, we have linked both the music video and print together.

  1. It would be useful for you to post some visual comparisons with some of the CD covers you've looked at for research in order to demonstrate how you have applied conventions as well as understood the implications of your research and the choices you have made as a result.
