Print media research- Digi-pack

For the printed media I have also done some research, the way in which I went about this is that I looked at some Paul Weller album covers and tried to identify any running themes. I have identified one thing, almost all of the album covers have the artist on on them. Another thing that stands out is the colours used on the cover; the use of black and white has a nice effect however it is not as eye catching as some of the others such as the forth one down.

Here are some album covers that I have drawn inspiration from:

 

I have a rough idea of how I want the album cover to look and then I stumbled across the image below and it is very similar to it. The effect that I am going to use is the black and white 'stamp' effect. The reason that I am going to use this is not only does it look good but it fits with the genre of my track.

Here is the album cover in question:

The use of the black and white on this poster is effective as it is appealing and the reason for this is that it is different from what you come to expect form album covers.
