New Album Cover Draft Idea




These are my three ideas for an album cover; I took inspiration from a previous post about The Automatic - This Is A Fix CD cover. I have used the same image on each design but with slightly different features; the first two with no writing on at all would have the band name and album name written down the side of the CD case so it makes the image stand out a lot more. Although I have included a design with writing on the cover I am unsure as to whether I will use this feature or not.
The idea of the black object came from The Automatic's cover and I really like the idea, however I do not know if the location of the black box is right or not for this image - it could be smaller, further in the distance, or another shape entirely. I really like the images I have taken and joined together as it looked like 4 separate people running through one field however it is the same person with editing on Photoshop. I used my brother as the person for my draft, I could change this for the real one however he is a good person to use as he is neutral to the band and the media group in general so he has no purpose to the song; this idea came from both The Automatic's album but also a famous Arctic Monkeys album (Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not) featured a random man smoking on the front cover.

  1. Jess. As discussed this is a much better idea. What you will need to do is identify the horizon in order to ensure the perspective is correct. Also as discussed try and have people infront of the monolith in order to give it depth and scale.
