Avril Lavinge CD and back covers

Front Cover of the Albumthe albums main focus on the cover is the artist. A mid shot has been used to create a shot where the artist feels engaged with the audience and can draw in our attention. I would like to use this kind of camera shot on our cover as I feel it is important for the audience to feel involved.

The colours used on the front cover are dark and basic, which makes the cover look even more effective as this is the main theme throughout this album.

The style of font used to portray the artists name also follows this gloomy theme in order for the album to ‘flow’.

The CD uses the colours and styles from the front cover. The effect of doing this allows the cd cover, and back cover to combine to show the finished product, where the ‘cross’ has been taken from the front cover and used as the main focus on the CD itself.

I would like to include a feature like this on our CD as I feel it would complete the album by having a constant flow all the way through the CD.

Again, the colours used are very dark which creates a gloomy dark atmosphere and in this case portrays the genre pop/rock but in a unique way.

The CD

Back cover of the album This is the back of the CD cover, this is completely different to the ones I have already focused on.

The main difference is the colour which has been used and the different camera shots which have been used to portray the story across.

The shot itself sees Avril lying down on the floor but looking directly at the camera, the colours used are black and grey, which gives a gloomy atmosphere to the back cover, and these shades of colours are also used throughout the front cover.
