Designing my album cover.


This was my first prototype for my album cover using art which I sourced on the internet. I really liked the typewriter feel and the colours, however to link it in with the album name 'oceans' I wanted something that mirrored that slightly, thats why I prefer the use of Danny's art, which looks like an ocean, with the added aspect of the spraypaint which adds a cool urban vibe to the album cover, so as to not only appeal to the fangirls. I will put pictures of Jem inside the digipak to appeal to the younger 'fangirl' audiences.

When choosing the font, I wanted to go with something cool and contemporary, so as to fit in with other indie bands but also be eye catching when sitting on a shelf in a shop. I went with this cool understated font, as I already thought that the album cover artwork spoke for itself in the terms of being cool and eye catching. I kept a similar format from the mock that I did first, as I thought that this worked well, though I believe that my final outcome was an improvement and perfect for the image that I am going for.
