CD Case study 1 - Bryson Tiller

It is the Bryson Tiller album and we did the song by him called let me explain. I have chosen his album because I want each of my designs to represent him and because he wrote and produced the song his design of his album would be best suitable. The back of the imaged is red this can easily be created on Photoshop or I could use professional photography lighting in the photography studio. The cover is very simple which I love but holds a much thicker meaning. This shot type on the back cover and front cover is all mid shots and that is the type of layout I am going for and the mysterious look especially on the back cover you see his shadow and the front cover is red I really like the photography used. The angle is used is very straight on but Bryson tiller is looking the other way and the emotion on the front cover I am very interested in the image because it is like he is disengaging with the audience and is focusing on the music and gives the audience a sense of mystery like I was saying before. Lighting is very dark and 

serious and matches the type of colours that have been used. The effects that have been used I think they have edited the images that have been use and I think focuses on the black silhouette effect so colour overlay on Photoshop. The text always in the middle for the front cover and back cover and is white so it stands out over the red and black I think that I will follow this layout because the text is very simple but makes a statement. I can use the colours that they have been used in a similar way and the layout of the cd cover. I want to use a font similar too has been used for this cd packaging because something bold would be to in your face and that's not how I want my audience to feel, I want them to feel a emotionally connected to the front cover so something big and bold wouldn't really go with the type of song we did by him. I can not find the inside of this case study because this artist has mainly used online such as iTunes to promote his album and it is not in stores that I have seen so in the style of this album cover I think the spine will be red with just his name in white in the middle as I said before his album packaging is very simple so I won't be adding anything too much to the spine. The colour will match the whole album. The inside of the cd the cd design will be red and black or white depending what goes with the imagery and the behind the cd design will be back to contrast the red so the writing on the cd will probably black to match the background. The left pane would be another piece of my photography and the background will be red matching the theme the whole image will cover the left pane. I am sticking to the colour scheme red, black and white to keep it organised and relatable to Bryson tiller as a artist. If I change my mind about the colours I will still get inspiration from the layout of the cd. If I have good photography I will add more pictures and possible make a booklet following the style of Bryson tiller.
