After researching numerous albums from artists such as Oasis, Professor Green and Plan B Adam discovered that the first inside panel generally contains a simple image. As this is a convention we followed this, we wanted an image that would represent our artist and genre of music. Adam looked through some pictures of the guitar we took when filming and found this image that fitted perfectly.
The image needed manipulating to create the effect we wanted. Adam selected the wall and put a gradient in the form of a linear burn which we used on the front cover. This helped keep the consistency that is needed when generating a house style. He then changed the vibrance and brightness of the guitar to make it stand out and give it emphasis. These changes made the image sharper and clearer for the customer. They yellow of the guitar know stands out and is a deeper colour.
Once the image was edited and we were all happy, Adam started looking at what other conventions inside panels have. We felt that there was something missing from our inside cover. We found that some artists put upcoming tour dates on the inside, however we felt this would not work for us. Adam decided to add the website of Noel Gallagher which helps us promote the artist, without destracting from the main picture on the panel. It also allows our customer to find out more about the band online which encourages interactivity.
Adam decided on a plain font for this as we did not want it to be to bold. He used calibri with a stroke of 2.
Below is the final inside cover, we feel that the gradient links it to the front cover and helps keep our consistency and maintain our house style.
