An album cover is just as important when advertising the song for an artist. The album cover usually signifies and makes reference to the music video, and most importantly, the brand image of the artist. Here are some examples of album covers that have interested us..
The album covers here have all been designed and edited interestingly. The artwork for the albums catch the eye of the public, and convey messages to the target audience. The middle picture in this montage is the artwork for Mark Ronson and The Business INTL's album, which we found very different from the rest and inspiring to us, for when we plan what we want our album cover to look like.
The use of black and white with a contrasting bright colour for the artist's name (Pixie Lott and Example album cover) is a clever technique as it makes the focus to be on the artists name. However the album covers that really caught our eye is the Christina Aguilera and Example album cover. The use of the image being edited to split the face in two is something we may use and progress; for example we could edit the face image into two to demonstrate the two gender differences we are using within our video.
Here is a hand drawn idea for our album cover.
