These are the images to choose from for the back cover of my album.

Looking at the front cover I am quite keen to not use the same character, but to still use the close up-head shot as I think that would be quite simple and effective.
Going of this judgement, I think this image would be most suitable as it gives plenty of room for text- it is a close up head shot, but not identical to the shot on the front cover, it is slightly different.

I imported the image into fireworks, then changes the canvas size to 10cm by 10cm and resized the image to fit the canvas correctly. Finally I saved it as a jpeg so that I can edit it on photoshop.

Messing around with some of the filters on photoshop, I tried the same ‘rough pastels’ effect which I used on the front cover, then tried another one called ‘angled strokes’ which I preferred as it is smoother and reflects the innocence of the character.

By changing the direction, brush size and the sharpness you can alter the image-By increasing the direction but keeping the other two options similar I liked the increased intensity of the face.

CREATING A MUSIC RECORD LOGO
I Looked at a couple of other record label logo’s
and I thought that a globe would be quite simple and unique as it is a universal brand I WANT To create-I
first resized the globe then changed it from colour to black and
white increasing the contrast.
To get rid of the rough edges I used the blur tool.
Finally I added my initials to keep it simple and overlapped the text on the globe and resized it to a smaller image.

I have now decided to move the text to the right hand side rather than centring it, as now it matches the barcode and
looks more professional.

Instead of having the text massive I have decided to make the text a smaller font to match the front cover a bit more

I have finally added a bonus feature text box in-this will entice the audience and will be contribute as an extra selling feature.
