Jack Edwards is creating a mood board and informal proposal for a rap album cover project. The mood board includes many cartoon album covers and images using bright, vibrant colors which will influence the color choices for Jack's cover. It also contains repeated images of the same artist that Jack admires. The mood board will impact the final cover through the use of similar colors and possibly including a cartoon image of Jack or a friend. The informal proposal outlines Jack's idea for a colorful rap album cover possibly featuring themselves or a friend. It discusses the audience, materials needed and discounted alternative project ideas like a magazine or movie poster that were not chosen.

5. Mood Board Analysis
Is there any repetition in the images you have collected?
Repeated colours/images styles/fonts/tone/mood
There are a lot of cartoon album covers , this is because for my album cover I
would like to create something like that. There are also a lot of bright vibrant
colours which have been included in these album covers which will influence
my colour choices when making my album cover, so far I haven't chosen what
colours to use. There are also a few images of the same artist such as 21
savage , this is because I like the cartoons which represent them as well as
there album covers which I will aspire to when making mine.
How will your mood board influence your final product?
One way my mood board will influence my final album cover is the use of colours.
The pictures included on my moon board will influence my colour scheme in my
cover as a lot of the covers use bright colours unlike dark colours , therefore I may
choose to use a colour such as blue or purple for my main colour. Another way
my mood board will influence my final cover is the cartoons used. This is because
I don’t know whether to include one or not however I would like to. I would also
have to think about where to put him and how to make one.

6. Informal Proposal
Current Idea
Concept I want to create a rap album cover which will include bright vibrant colours like blue
or purple . I would also like to include a cartoon image of my self or possibly a friend.
Type of
products you
would make
• Album cover
• Tour poster
• Back cover of album
What you will
need to make
them
I will need a camera to take the picture of the person posing in my album cover. I
may also need some props like a flag. Finally I may need to get the bus or the car
somewhere to take the pictures , as there is not many places to take photos of
where I live.
Audience My album cover will be aimed at 16+ this is because In most rap albums there is
explicit language. My audience will all so be focused at the male demographic as you
don’t really see any of the female rappers. Finally my audience is also focused and
aimed towards

7. Choices
Discounted ideas Reasons for not choosing this
project
Magazine cover • This is because there are so many
different genres for example fashion ,
sport and lifestyle. Also I wouldn't’t know
what to take a picture of and where.
Sci-fi movie poster • I didn't’t choose this project because I
wouldn't’t know where to take the
photos. Another reason is that I would
need props for the poster such as
possibly guns , led lights and lasers.
