In this album cover and poster they have either used the same person with a different look or taken two different people and merged them together to create one face, this basically has the message that they two people in one body, and as a group we decided to come up with two ideas, one of these ideas included making Kane (who plays Dappy), look into a mirror which reflects two different images in order to suggest he is in two minds about the situation in his relationship. We thought this idea would be good to use for the Poster instead of the album cover as the poster would just represent the actual song “No Regrets”, and the chorus repeats, “coz when I look in the mirror, I don’t even recognize myself”, this make its relate to the song which would portray the same message as the images shown below.
In the “FACE OFF” cover you can also notice that the background shows a low key lighting of clouds, this shows that there is definitely a dark side to there personalities which leaves the album looking mysterious, this theme is continued on the back cover to the CD but only instead of the faces it shows the city they are from at night time with all the buildings lights on in New York to symbolize “The city that never sleeps”.
The Beyonce Album poster will most likley resemble our album poster more, due to the fact that it is actually the same person shown in two different styles where one picture looks innocent and the other looks slightly roguish and evil, we will create this by either using a Halo and Horns, or Black and white clothes to create a juxtaposition between the good and bad we are trying to represent.
On the other hand, the album cover would represent more than one song because it would be for the whole album, which would contain multiple songs therefore, the album cover would have to relate to more than one song. We thought that we show a picture of Kane on a park bench on a bright summers day with two images of him superimposed over the top, showing him in both a good and bad light, this would be good to relate to songs of all genres on the album. I have given examples of an album cover and album poster that have shown ideas similar to the ones we have come up with.
On The Jamie Scott album cover and exaggerated naturalistic light is used in order to create and saintly glow to the image, the back of the album cover uses a slight low key filter which may represent the fact that there is a gloomy side to the album. In our album cover we will use naturalistic light created by the sun in order to create a similar effect to the front cover, this will be very similar to the lighting displayed on the Jessica York album cover. This will be used to show that the main person Dappy (played by Kane) will be happy that he has no regrets in the things that he does, hopefully the sun will re-create the same effect that a high key filter would simulate.
