CD front and back cover attempt


(Front Cover)


(Back Cover)


To create the front and back covers I have used Microsoft Photodraw because it has all the facilities that I needed to best create a CD. I have used an image of the person that we have asked to be in the music video and made it black and white because when I researched album covers of a similar genre there was a recurring theme of many of them having black and white covers and for the text on the front cover I have used black and red - colours typical of this genre and the font century gothic.
The front cover is simple because when I did my research rock/pop albums are simple and plain and do not have a lot happening or bright colours as that type of cover is aimed at younger audiences.
For the back cover I have used a picture we took in the woods, it is a location that we are actually planning on using in the music video itself so this means there will be a connection to the album and music video. I have again continued with the theme of black and red, and I have listed the tracks and the length of them - this is obviously needed and typical of existing albums. I have also created a review area displaying what magazines have rated the CD to make it appear real as this would sometimes appear on albums to make people want to buy them because of the high ratings.
