Album covers



The album above is by Little Boots, the graphics that have been in this cover are very good. It also includes the artist on the front cover.



Here is an album by La Roux. This like many other album covers that get released is very plain, the reason why it will sell well is because La Roux is shown on the front on the album cover as their star motif, meaning she is prompting herself with her own face.



Here is an album cover by Florence and the Machine that stands out from the crowd completely, it is very different and is a very good and clever design. That have used the name of the album well with the images and they have used the artist as their star motif.



The album cover that we are going to try to make ours like like will be one similar to Eminem. The reason why we have chosen this as a group was because he uses plain covers yet they are very meaningful and also interesting.



The ACDC album cover from above is very simplistic but it is very effective. The reason for this album cover being successful is because it stands out very will with the cannon on its own on the front cover with just the name of the Artist and album.

All of these album covers have the same thing in common, they all have a star motif. Whether it is an image of the artist or lead singer of the band, or if it is just an image that fans can relate to, to know that it is that particular artists album. This is our task, we are going to have to think of a very good star motif if we want our album cover to stand out from the crowd and want people to buy it even if they haven't heard the music.
