Possible CD covers

FRONT COVER DRAFT!!!
Front cover idea? Keeping to the conventions of indie CD covers by using factors such as:

  • simplicity

  • uniqueness

  • quirky
These are all factors adapted from Kate Nash CD covers and website design. Additional ideas would be adding gold stars (once printed off) and gold glitter for a homemade effect- obviously this couldn't be done in terms of mass productions but for our one off project this would have a great effect. We would also add the title and artist name (Skeleton Song by Kate Nash) to the left in a handwritten scrawl, again similar to the style of Kate Nash.

BACK COVER DRAFT!!!
Like the front cover, this is just a simple image taken off google images. I thought for an added extra to crop off one arm and add it to the other side of the cover- adding to the quirkiness. I think plain or primary colours would be the best option for a background as it adds to the laid back 'don't care' feel which surrounds the indie genre. Patterns would be too fussy, I think. Again, adding decoration such at a few stars or glitter would be appropiate and the song title and B-side songs would be written in the middle in a hand written font.
