Planning - Investigation into CD covers

When investigating real life CD covers it is clear to see some aspects taken and used for our own CD cover, these are common motifs like the use of black and white or a city skyline. For instance this cover of the album cover by American Strange features a skyline and black and white, both used in my CD cover below. Not only this but the way the black and white is separated is also very similar to my cover. I thought this album cover had a very cool sophisticated look to it something which kept with the theme we were aiming for with our Coldplay release.




The most common thing we found on album covers was the black and white theme something we have used again and again within our project. Another album we found this featured on was Razorlight's album, similar to us it features the artist in black and the back ground in white.
