album covers

Today, we decided to change the idea for our album cover. Our first main idea involved the person shown on the album cover wearing bright clothing, which would appeal to our audience as bright colours are a usual convention of psytrance music videos. Our album cover idea today involved concealing our artist's identity. Conventionally, psytrance artists are not seen during music videos, and we did not want to break this convention, so we made sure our artist's identity is partly covered.
We did this by making him wear shades and wearing a hoodie. This effectively created the impression that our artist's identity is not supposed to be seen by the audience, which is how we stuck to the conventions.
We now have to choose out of these two ideas. Both of the photo ideas have been uploaded onto a computer and we will soon decide which idea to use for our cover.
