Originally for my digi-pack, I was inspired by pop art and wanted to create a similar effect like Andy Warhol's silk screen images of Marilyn Monroe, after completing the album cover I decided that i'm not happy with it as after getting feedback from class mates I found that people thought it was too colourful and they didn't like it that much so I decided to start again.
The iconic posters for the film Trainspotting are my inspiration for my album cover. Particularly from the poster to the left. Trainspotting is an anti-social realist film, covering areas like drugs, gangs and violence. Although my music video doesn't cover these themes specifically, my music video covers themes of vandalism (spray painting) and shoplifting in reasons behind are similar as Renton chooses a life of addiction because he is against materialism and the establishment and I am trying to get a similar ideology behind my music video through suggesting that they don't need the material things in life they just need their friendship.
My old album cover front and back:
Since the target audience for my artist is males, I think that the colour scheme is feminine and the whole aesthetic isn't what I was going for. However in this process I have learned the basic way to use photoshop which I can put back into the construction of my new album cover and digi pack.
New Idea
