1. The Sam Smith record cover,
in the lonely hour, Sam's body
language is representing that
he is lonely and depressed,
hence why he writes about
love and depressing songs.
Sam Smith is the main focal
point in his record photo; he
stands out so his fans will
automatically buy his CD and
automatically recognise him.
Sam Smith
IN THE LONELY HOUR
This stands out the most, his name is bigger and
in bold to make sure that you are able to see it. In
the lonely hour is basically trying to say, he's
having a lonely hour.
They have put Sam in front of a dull
grey background, ‘grey’ is not a
happy colour, in fact ‘grey’ gives off a
bad vibe. And also Sam's body
language on how he is sitting on the
chair shows he’s not happy.
Sam looks quite serious about his feeling and you can
actually see that he looks lonely and sad.
Sam’s wearing dark denim jeans and a dark top as
well as a dark jacket over the top. They aren’t very
eye catching colours; in fact they are boring and
dull. Also he looks very pale and that's weird
because a ‘pop music record cover’ is normally eye
catching and fun with bright outstanding colours
and this is boring and sad with dull, moggy colours.
His attitude in his pose is sort of natural, like it doesn't
look like he's been made to be in a pose maybe he's
sitting there thinking and they just took the photo. It
looks fresh and natural.
