For the cover, I wanted a shot of our actor playing the guitar and having houses and the sight of an urban village in the background as this reflects the storyline I was aiming for in my music video. This is a frozen still image from some of the footage I have obtained during the filming of the music video. I wanted it in black and white as well as this shows a link between the music video where approximately a third of it is in black and white. I also felt it was important to have the official oasis logo which is seen on every album cover they have produced.
This is only the front cover. For my A2 portfolio I am also expected to create the back of the album cover. I also created this on photoshop. This is my final proposal for the back of my album cover:
For this I used an image which I took with a camera which I obtained whilst filming my music video. This is an actual photo of the poker scene set which is in my music video. I think that this would work well as it develops another link between the ancillary project and the music video and makes the back more authentic by linking in the music video from my song onto the album. I have also used and developed the typical codes and conventions of a CD Album by listing the songs downwards on the back. As is common amongst many albums, the length of the song is also there.
