3rd Album Cover




We took our inspiration for our album cover and poster from Young Kato's album 'Drink, Dance, Play'. They used a completely different person who isn't in the band, to be on the front cover. This is what we want to do and as it meets the conventions we feel that this would work better. The bright colours that they have used show the upbeat and power of the album.
 
Iconography Linked To Sound
- The powder paint shows the modern and young stance to the album. Because the powder paint is bright and colourful, it shows that the sound is going to be loud and upbeat.
Typography Linked To Sound
- We chose to use a bold/blocked typeography as it represents the genre of our music and it stands out. It gives an upbeat feeling to the album which is what we want to represent.
Conventions
Dance/Pop:
  • Loud
  • Bold
  • Colourful
  • Up beat
  • Powerful
We have showed this in our album cover idea through the typography and the iconography with the bold and colourful text and picture.
Meta-narrative
- John Newman has a old school retro traditional look to him. His album covers are quite simplel, they use minimul coolurs and use him at the front fo the main focus.
UKF (who remixed the song) have a colourful loud cover because it is a loud, powerful album so we used John Nemans simple look and UKF's stlye and put them together to use.
