Representation of The Jacques


Analysing Existing Album Covers and Posters

This is one of the album covers of our band. It is in black and white, similarly to some of their music videos, which conforms to the indie rock genre. The picture shows two young boys smoking, emphasising the reckless look they want to create about themselves. There is no writing on the album cover other than the band's logo. Overall it is a very simple design, but it conforms greatly to the indie rock genre, as well as giving us hints to what the band's style is like. 

When coming to make our digi pack, we plan to use the same level of simplicity in our design, possibly using black and white, depending on whether or not we chose to put our music video in black and white. As they have used children for their album cover, we thought that it would then work well if we used one of our concept ideas- to use children to represent the band- as they have associated themselves with children before.
