Planning productionFront cover images:

The main front cover image I will use will be a medium shot with Ste looking slightly down. This portrays the indie look of being quite casual.

The picture will be taken outside of the Parr hall which shows he is an up and coming artist who will be performing in places like this.

Small long shot of a band performing live in concert.
