CD Cover Idea 2

Here is our second idea for an album cover. We have reviewed our previous idea and kept aspects we liked and removed some that we felt did not work. We decided to experiement with a different picture, personally I prefered this picture, it is a location we have used in the video. It also has a notion of looking, Glenn is watching other people in their everyday life. We found when researching the artist is not always looking at the camera. Adam changed the opactity of the gradient to 28%, he applied the gradient twice but this time changed the mode to colour burn. We felt our previous cover was too bland the image was not sharp, this is because the previous mode was overlay, the image was not effected it was almost as if someone had put a see through cover over our picture. Colour burn actually changes the sharpness of the picture. We felt this worked better and looked more like Noels digipak.  Adam then changed the title font, he added effects like the stroke and contour to make the font stand out more against the light background.

We feel this image will help our target audience link our video to the album, because Glenn is on the fron cover, and aswell as this the location is we have used is in the video. I feel this shot was an action shot, we did not want our covers image to look set up completley. Because it is a narrative our image must capture Glenn in his observing of life.
