CD Cover - Ideas

Me and Harrison have began contructing ideas on what our CD cover and poster should look like, we came up with the concept of having similar colours to what we used in our music video which is purple. We though that the intergration between music video and our digipak would be a good idea of getting the audience to recognise our product imeddiently just by using a single colour.

CD Cover - We agreed that we wanted to follow our unorthodox tradition and have the CD cover different to others, firstly me and Harrison gathered some examples of CD covers and began critisising them to see what was usual to see in them. we then wanted to start focusing on what the aestheics were going to be for our digipak, we had already come up with the idea of only having one colour inluded in our CD cover and we were sure that we wanted it to be purple because we included this colour within our music video. But we were unsure on how much colour we should include as we didn't want the CD cover to be dominated by just colour. We then began to look at examples of album covers that include one colour.

Here is an exmaple of an Album Cover that uses one colour.

This exmaple inspired us into choosing where the colour should be included on our digipak. We finalised our decision and decided to have the text of the CD cover in purple and the images in black and white.
