Album covers


The first think that catches your eye in this album cover is the big bubble writing. Under it we see the singer sitting in what seems to be a cloud and looking at the writing. His clothes have been drawn making him look cartoony. 







This album cover shows 5 women wearing 5 different colour dresses posing on top of some stairs staring off into the distance. The picture is in black in white apart from their dresses so the viewer will focus on them.













This Cover is also black and white. It looks like a password number lock which suggest mystery. Unlike the others there isn't anyone on this cover

Typography Technique Video BBC (Missing Words) December 1st 2016

Type design can give your words a (1) voice It can really add meaning and enhance the (2)message  of your words. For example, on the Dizzie album they have used some really (3)checky  and chunky typography here. It not only (4)ilustrates  the word but loads it with (5)character  and it's great for someone that has personality like Dizzie. In contrast to this one, I've got the Saturdays album and the typography here is really (6)elegant and beautifully crafted. It's much much more (7)femenine than the Dizzie one and it works very well with the fashionesque shoot on the front. In total contrast to my last two albums, I've got the Prodigy Dirtchamber sessions. They've used found and (8)distracted type on the front cover and all the way through the album including the booklet where they've hand (9)scratched all the track names into the booklet. And I think this works really beautifully with the (10) mishmash  of music that is on the CD.
