All the legal information on the front cover for Paramore is hidden within different sized text that repeats the CD’s name. The font used on My Chemical Romances cover is extremely different and really stands out which is something I like. I also like how the colours contrast. On this cover, the contrast has been altered to create a colourful feel to the cover which really makes it stand out. This cover is simple, but really stands out due to it’s dark background and different coloured fonts, which are all simple and makes the case clear, with not too much going on. I like how a cartoon has been used on this cover and it doesn’t specifically give away the genre of the music. It also makes the music genre seem fun and energetic. For this cover, the blue is used for both the artists name and a filter on the image of the artists. Adding a calm, cool feeling to cover. On this cover, the artist is the focal point, which is something we wish to take inspiration from. It shows the star image of the artist. Here the font relates to filter used on the image, as they look like they are from a different time period. The name of the album relates to the image on the album which I think makes the cover extremely effective at advertising it’s self. Although most of this cover is in black and white there is a small amount of colour which draws you in to certain parts of the cover, which is extremely effective. This cover is simple but stands out due to the font used as it’s something different and with the white background, the attention of the eyes are drawn straight to the bands name. On this cover, the colours used on the images of the band make them really stand out and look exciting and fresh. This then contrasts with the black lettering of the bands name which also makes that highly stand out.

All the legal information on the front cover for Paramore is hidden within different sized text that repeats the CD’s name.

The font used on My Chemical Romances cover is extremely different and really stands out which is something I like. I also like how the colours contrast.

On this cover, the contrast has been altered to create a colourful feel to the cover which really makes it stand out.

This cover is simple, but really stands out due to it’s dark background and different coloured fonts, which are all simple and makes the case clear, with not too much going on.

I like how a cartoon has been used on this cover and it doesn’t specifically give away the genre of the music. It also makes the music genre seem fun and energetic.

For this cover, the blue is used for both the artists name and a filter on the image of the artists. Adding a calm, cool feeling to cover.

On this cover, the artist is the focal point, which is something we wish to take inspiration from. It shows the star image of the artist.

Here the font relates to filter used on the image, as they look like they are from a different time period.

The name of the album relates to the image on the album which I think makes the cover extremely effective at advertising it’s self.

Although most of this cover is in black and white there is a small amount of colour which draws you in to certain parts of the cover, which is extremely effective.

This cover is simple but stands out due to the font used as it’s something different and with the white background, the attention of the eyes are drawn straight to the bands name.

On this cover, the colours used on the images of the band make them really stand out and look exciting and fresh. This then contrasts with the black lettering of the bands name which also makes that highly stand out.

The bright coloured image and title contrasts against the black background and makes these really stand out which draws in the audience.

The pixelated images are of the band members on this cover, which is a good way of showing star image, but through a different, more creative way and I really like this as it makes it look unique.

On this cover, the black and white create a nice effect which goes with the image on the cover, as a gangster style image, with matching colours, making the cover look different to what it is actually is, hip hop.

This cover focuses on the artists and promotes them.

This cover is cartoon and doesn’t give much away about the genre of the music until you see to font at the bottom left as it is a stereotypical hip hop font which fits well with the genre.

This cover also uses cartoons, however the name of the album also relates to the cartoon image, again not giving anything away about the genre of the music.

The artist is the focal point of this cover, which is something we wish to create for our digipak.

On this cover, a parental advisory is given, to warn people about the contents of the music, which is something we will need to include, due to our track containing a swear word.

For this cover, the background is black which makes the brightly coloured album name really stand out, especially as it’s in different colours.

This one is extremely simple, but effective at the same time. The font used stands out due to it’s colour but also displays the genre of this music well.

I like this cover as rather than the background being black and white, it’s brightly coloured which then contrasts against the black and white image of the artist, which makes them really stand out. Also, the font used is different and fits well with the genre.

This cover again, focuses purely on the artists and their star image.

This cover is plain but complex at the same time as there is in image at the bottom of an applause given by a crowd who do not look as though they would be listen to hip hop music so this contrasts with the genre. I also like font used, as one letter is backwards, perhaps to portray the backwardness of this cover as it contrasts it’s genre.

Like the DizzeeRascal cover, this cover contrasts the background and the images of the artists which makes them really stand out and make the cover look aesthetically pleasing.
