Ideas For Our C.D Cover

These are a variety of shot types that we thought would be good for our CD cover.


Here we decided to take a picture of Marks shadow because we thought it could be a good C.D front cover. We were messing about trying to find unusual images because the counting crows album covers have unusual images on them and so we were trying to use those images as inspiration for our C.D cover. When I took the picture I thought that it was a good idea but on reflection, having looked at it again, it doesn't quite fit the style that we wanted.


This is Mark making the heart shaped sculpture. We first made the sculpture out of dark wood chippings but when we took a picture it didn't really stand out. So then we put some lighter wood chippings round the outside as a border. This made the whole sculpture really stand out.


Here's one of the pictures that we took to see if it looked alright or not. We decided we really liked the picture. We chose the heart sign because it connotes love. I think this is ideal becasue it goes with the song title 'Accidentally in Love'. Our target audience will relate to the heart as a sign of love because it is a familiar connotation. 


We were experimenting with taking shots of the sky and the sun. We took a lot of pictures but these four were the ones that we thought looked the best. We thought that these could be the background on the album cover or the actual cover itself. Again we were trying to get unusual images as per the counting crows album covers.

  
The above image was spoilt by the climbing frame at the bottom. Just the sun, the trees and the sky would have made a better image.


This image is one that we might mess about with in photoshop. I like the effect that the camera has come up with.


I quite like the idea of using this as the background for our album cover.









I took this photo when I was on holiday and I thought it would be a good picture for our digi pack. I like the way the camera has made the sun look different and the way it has made the image look grey instead of the usual blue.
