CONSTRUCTION: MY ALBUM FRONT COVER

Here are two different versions of album front cover I designed for our project. I have altered the design from the original draft as my groupmate and I both agreed that showing the faces of the band members and having them filling up the whole cover would suit the band more, as it is energetic, loud and bold.

The difference between these two covers are that the first one has a watermark effect, which seems more artistic and alternative; and the second one has a smaller band logo but the band members are on the foreground, which is loud and clear.

I like both of them as they both carry different messages and create different effects. Therefore, we are going to show these to our target audience when we have finished the back cover and get some feedback.

CONSTRUCTION: FILMING OUR NARRATIVE

Since the narrative in our music video isnt complete and some footage was badly lit, we decided to redo it. So we went to Esher train station and I filmed the lead singer and two of his friends driving to the train station, walking towards the platform, getting on a train and going on a holiday.

CONSTRUCTION: THE BACK COVER

After finishing the the front cover i decided that for the backcover I would like to keep the dripping effect and the colourful background, as it is energetic and loud, which suits the band.

Here is one of the photographs that I took for the band and I decided to put this on the back cover. It shows two of the members having fun and laughing, which seems really generic.

CONSTRUCTION: BACK COVER OF ALBUM

Here is the back cover I designed for my project I used the watermark effect again, which I really like because it is bright and colourful, which suits the message of "Good Life".

I also added a bar code, the producers' logos and the FBI anti-piracy logo to make the cover more realistic and professional.

CONSTRUCTION: PHOTO-SHOOT FOR ALBUM FRONT COVER

 

In order to create my album cover and magazine advert, I did a Photoshoot of the band and here are some of the photos.I really like them because they look casual. yet show that the band is like a group of close young friends, which suits the band image created in the music video.
