my album art work back cover- 2

This is the back of my second album cover . I have used all the standard convention as the songs are in chronological order on the left hand side of the cover going vertically down also the image is on the right hand side
 I have used the same colors of black and white to keep continuity , but i have change the font , so that it is more welcoming as unlike the front cover i do not want to grab the audiences attention as, i they already are engaged with the product. so i have used this font to be welcoming and to entice the audience to buy the album.

The image i have used is of a hand draw picture of a home which look like it has been drawn buy a child , this is to make the audience feel that the song in this album are personal , as children drawing are something seen as personal to a person. Also it relates to the album name which seems clever as there is a cognitive link .

My album art work cover- 2

This is another album cover i created , this was so that i could chose out of the two albums.

I have used all the normal conventions of a album , as the artists name is in the top left corner, the album name is at the bottom and centered, the bar code is in the bottom right and the image is in the center

The font i used for the artist is different to the title it is so that it stands out , i used a font that look like hand writing so that it looks like the artist herself is original. Also i used a red satin so her name stands out as there is no image of the artist on the album so i want it to stand out so they recognize straight away who the artist is.
 The title font i done in capitals and in arial black this is so that it stand out and is dramatic, like the music which is in the album , also i done in it a block like font as the central image in my album is block like . The font stand out and is visually eye caching so people who pass by this album will look twice

The central image of the album is a house , which is black and is made up of rectangles and squares , it is very simple , yet like the font it is dramatic , so people will look twice at the album which makes it more likely to be purchase . Also as the house is done in this way it give a universal idea of home so everyone will be able to relate to the song.

Artist promotion

This is the promotion for my album, which is going to be advertised in a magazine. It adheres the normal convention of album adverts , as the name of the artist is in the top left corner , the price of the album is on the advert, details of up coming tour , There is a website were you can access information about the artist, also there are images of the album so that people will recognize. Also i said "New hit album only £9.00" , this is so that the audience feels they are getting a deal, as people are more likely to purchase a product if they feel they are getting a deal as everyone wants to save money. I further put info about the tour , so the more you promote this the more it creates a buzz about it so the audience will talk about it , therefore more people are more likely to go to the tour , which bring in even more income . I further tell people to visit the website so that more people learn more about the artist building interest in the artist intern making her more famous , so people are more  to buy her product. I put the website in black and a different font so that it stands out and people check it as there is allot more promotion in the website

I used a font which is girly as this albums audience is mainly women as the song is about her brake up with her boyfriend which is something women can relate to. Therefore I used this font to target the women Taggert audience. I further used the same color font as i used for my album cover this was to keep continuity also they are welcoming colors which will draw in a audience as it is easy on the eyes , also they are colors which do not specifically single out one sex. I put a satin on the text so that it makes it more bold and so that it stands out so that it becomes more eye caching to the audience .

I used a yellow background as red orange and yellow , are colors which go together, so the colors do not clash, i didn't want the color to clash as i want the advert to be inviting to invite people to by it, also i further wanted it to be easy on the eye so people are more likely to read the hole advert.
   

This is the back of the my album cover . I kept the font the same to keep it consistent and so that it has a nice flow from back to from. I also kept the colour's  same , but i made them less bold as i spread the shadow out and put a smaller satin . This is because i want it to be less eye catching but more inviting , so i wanted to make my font have a worm glow to make it more welcoming so i using a red glow, also the orange is a very homely colour , which is inviting and so is red , so the colour's tiger a good emotion in the person

I used the same picture from my from cover to keep continuity, i also used a sharpen filter , which has made the image eye catching also the tracks genre is about being lost in life , so this sharpen effect has made it a bit blurry so it exude-rates her feeling of being lost and not knowing were she is going in life as it is jaded

My album art work cover

This is my Chosen Album cover out of the two which i created, i chose this one over the other as this one is less controversial and daring so i has all the normal conventions of Album art.

I first took a photograph of the Artist In one of the scene's from my music video , then i uploaded onto photo shop in a 12cm bu 12 cm frame. I added a sharpen filter which made the back ground look jaded , but the artist picture to be sharp , i done this too make the artist to stand out but this is a code for my mest li foke fe , and her ability to see though all the hard times

The text i got from 1001-fonts, and i chose this to give a sort of old look as genre of the music is which is from a different era . The colour's i used for the text of orange and red , as there are conventionally known as homely colour , so it fits in with the name of the alblum as it is called home. Also these colours fit with the conventions of foke music as it is a very homely genre of music.
