FINAL ANCILLARY-FRONT COVER

Creating the front cover

Creating the album cover from MeganAl-Ghailani
This is a step by step guide to how I made my cover, exploring the software I used, photos to choose from, editing and final drafts. I have included audience feedback, positives and negaties and a variety of edits and images to choose from.

FINAL FRONT COVER

Looking between the three different drafts, the main change that I made was between the text-changing between extra words and underlining. I wanted to keep the text simple, therefore the cover is not to chaotic with the image and the text. The simplicity is simple yet effective.

ANCILLARY FRONT COVER PHOTO EDITS from meganalghailani

Here I selected a couple of images (print screened or captured from my music video) and then edited them on photoshop. I wasn't sure what effect I wanted to use, all I knew was that I wanted the image to be distorted and unusual.

I decided to use the creature on the front cover because she is a character who sings in the music video, but also she portrays the brand very well as she is weird and unusual-very much like the music. By distorting this character even more than what she already is, creates a theme of the unknown.
