Poster> Album



Originally we were going to create a album cover plus the booklet for our album cover as this seemed the simplest and the most normal thing to do, mistake. After finding an album cover design that we as a group decided that we all liked we created the front page of the music video which turned out like the one above but shortly after creating this much to our disappointment as we thought it turned out great we realised that we would not be able to create this type of quality about 4 times as we also would have to include a back cover and a booklet but in terms of what to do next we think a poster will be much easier to do and we can dedicate all of our time onto one sole poster rather than many more hour creating more pieces for the album. The album cover was created using adobe photo-shop by Scott Jenkinson and includes a fade out image behind the logo and a skyline type image, similar to the one that will be used within the music video itself. After having a brief discussion with the group we came up with the following conclusion: " A poster will be much more easier, time efficient and will look better as we can apply more of our time solely on one creation.
We have decided to create a music album poster as a form of promotion, we have looked into what type of album poster we would like to create and we had a meeting with what we think it should contain and the conclusion we come up was that it should contain:
Logo
Album Name
Names of Band Members
Less colours 
Simple Decoration
House Theme
We are going to create a simple poster that draws the attention to just one item such as a microphone of musical instrument, we are going with the saying that "less is more". However cringey that sounds its what we as a group want as we think it will look more professional.

We have discussed that we should be keeping within the black and white them, thus making it simple and effective. As you can see in The Frays poster, they incorporate the band members within the poster and we're thinking of doing the same technique but in a different contents.  This is just one of our ideas.
