Case study 3 - Partynextdoor 3

The use of imagery in the party next door album is that he is looking off to the side in every image back and front shows an emotional connection with the audience and reflects him and his music as a whole. The shots used are all mid shots and a close up on the back cover. The framing is very simple apart from the front cover where his in a circle and I think this adds uniqueness to the front cover because of the background it helps you to focus in the middle where the actual artist it I love how it's in the middle makes the audience focus on one single thing and that's why I picked this case studies because it is very simple and open to any meanings and connects with the music on the album. The angle is straight on but the camera is looking up at him a little bit. The body language is very serious and doesn't seem to be very happy the colours really do set the mood and it looks like he is reminiscing about something and that relates to the song we did for our music video he was thinking about how he missed the good times and wants her forgiveness and I think this album cover relates to the song we did very well. Also the fade into black on the front and back cover is really good and I want to use it in my own CD packaging that i am going to create, i think it will set a very great feel to the CD cover and will create meaning and emotion at the same time. Going with this type of design inside the CD i think that i could use different photography but in the same saw they use it at the front and back. I think that the partynextdoor album the inside of it is very simple and this is linked to the front and back not so much colour the left pane might even be black and this reflects the artist as a whole because it seems like an emotional album you would want it to have minimal colour.
