Construction Of Back Cover

I have started to construct my back cover for my artists album, I have used the same dimensions as the front cover,which is 4.75 inches x 4.75 inches, they have to be the same size, in order to create a fully authentic cd case. I have chosen to use an image where my artist is looking away from the audience, as I think this contrast with looking forward, on the front of the album, therefore she is looking backwards on the back of the album. To ensure there is continuity in my album, I have used the same filter and black and white effect, so I have a black and white colour scheme. To fit the conventions of an album, I will need to add 10-12 song titles that are featured on the album, and also a barcode that will allow the album to be sold in the shops.

Here I have started to add the songs to my album, as you can see I have chosen to do 'Wrecking Ball' first, as this is the song I have chosen for artist, so this will be the most known song on my album, which will attract my target audience. For the second song, I have chosen to use the name of my album, as when I was researching albums, I noticed that many artists named there album after one of their songs. To keep with the continuity, I will keep the theme of 'heartbreak' in regards to the name of the songs, I think that this fits in well with the black and white theme, as it shows someone who is blank, therefore the album does n
ot connot happiness, but the sadness of my artist, I think my image also portrays this, as my artist is looking away from the audience, this makes her seem vulnerable.

Here is my albumwith my complete list of songs, I have chosen a normal sans serif font for this, as it appears that a lot of artists use this on the back of their albums, I think this is because it is an easy to read font. I have chosen all of the song names myself to avoid copyright, if there is any songs with these names, it was not intentional, so therefore there was no copy right intended. I now need to add a barcode to my album,

 Here I have added my barcode, which I got off Google, however I searched it as copyright free, the barcode will allow my album to be sold in shops all around the world. I have now noticed that it seems that I have forgotten to add my background to my album, therefore that doesn't fit in with the continuity of my album, so I will have to go back and add this.

 Here I have added the background onto my back cover, I had some difficulty adding this in so late on in the progress of this piece, so therefore I had to use the 'magic eraser' tool, to go round the artists head, without cutting out bits of her head, I used a blur effect, so that it would add a glow around the outside of my artist. However, I can't change the background behind the barcode, as the linings are really small.

 Here is my completed back cover for my album, where I have continued the theme from the front of my album, I have tried to keep my backcover to a minimum, as I didn't want it to look crammed, I was going for a more authentic and professional look, to connote the classiness of my artist. The songs all follow the semantic of being heart broken, which fits in with my artists song from my music video and also the album name.
