CD Covers

This is the CD cover for Paul Van Dykes album "Gatecrasher Anthems". like the previous CD covers which I have analysed this cover is also very plain as it is maily black and white with some traces yellow. the title is in a large font to help it stand out as it used a bold font the artists name which is positioned just below the title also  uses the same font.this cover. Like ministry of sounds cover for their album "The Annual" this cd cover also contains a printed sticker to attack the viewers attention as it tells the viewer whats included in the product for example no of cds and some of the songs.this sticker uses the colour yellow to help it stand out from the rest of the cover which is black and white.the editor for this cover has used building/construction signs for an image on the cover and has change the colours to black and white to empisize the the title "Gatecrasher". the editor has also added a grey image of wat looks like a lion to fill the space.

The CD cover above is for Ministry Of Sounds album "The Annual 2009". this CD cover is very plain as it is mainly black with a edited version of Ministry Of Sounds logo as it has more colours and is more appealing this is then used to attract viewers toward their CD. the cover also contains a small yellow box at the bottom right which gives viewers some basic information about what and who is featured within. the name of the album "The Annual 2009" is in a large font and in bold to stand out to any viewers where the albums artist which is "Ministry Of Sound" is wrapped around the logo and placed behind the albums name.

This CD cover by DJ Tiesto to uses a very rustic look as the have used what looks like brown paper with graphics and an image of Tiesto on top as the background. this cover has many thing in common with the one below as it too is very simple and also contains very little text. as you can see on this CD cover the Artists name "Tiesto" is positioned at the top of the cover with the albums title which is "Elements Of Life" positioned below it. overall this cover is very simple but affective as it tends to attract your attention.

For the cover of this album by Armin Van Buuren the designer has used mainly black and white with one blue word. since the colour white is represented by pure and innocent things, people they could be explaining that what you see is what you get as the only image used is of the artist and the text used is very simple. this could be hinting that the cover isn't as important or as good as the music within.on this album cover the albums name which is "A State Of Trance" is positioned at the top of the cove with the artists name which is "Armin Van Buuren" just below it. the designer has also coloured the year it was made which is "2009" in blue to make it stand out, The artists logo is positioned at the bottom right of the cover.
