The document analyzes potential CD covers for British singer Conor Maynard. It discusses several designs: 1) A photo of Maynard in a hoodie which could signal different genres like R&B. 2) Plain bold font fitting his electro-pop style and a photo of him casually dressed suggesting a humble teenager. 3) A crouching photo where his trainers are visible. 4) An animated blue silhouette differentiating from photos on other covers. All covers feature Maynard's name and album title with simple bold white font suggesting his innocent persona.
