Ed sheeran +

Front cover

• The different genres of music included on this album include : pop, hip hop, grime and acoustic• The colours used on the album cover consist of different shades of orange, and I think this is very effective as this

makes Ed Sheeran look mysterious and doesn’t give much away about his character.• His face is positioned in the middle of the cover which connotes he is the centre of attention, and the album name

is very unusual as its just a symbol + and placed on the bottom right of the cover. This is very clever as when ever people see this symbol + they will instantly think of Ed Sheeran and they associate that symbol with him.

• He is looking straight at the audience• Record labels – asylum, atlantic and elektra

Spine• The spine continues with

the orange theme and the text written on the spine is ‘Ed Sheeran’ placed on the left and in the middle is the album name +.

• On the right is the record label ‘Asylum’

• Text is all in white

Back cover• The Song list is placed in the middle

of the cover, in simple white text.

• Record labels also shown (asylum and atlantic) along with any other information about the album.

• Production credits – in a very small black font at the bottom, as it is not as important to the fans. However, it concerns the production teams and copyright information.

• On the bottom left Ed Sheerans website is printed – edsheeran.com – maybe connoting his website isnt as important as his songs but is still there for his fans to view.

• Barcode

Inside panes• Lyrics of all the songs on the album are

included in the inside panes. It is very simplistic which is similar to the front and back cover.
