The document discusses the design and branding choices for a new record label and artist. It describes creating the name "Majestic Records" to stand out from major labels and using the color purple to symbolize wealth. It also summarizes the album poster created to promote the artist, which was inspired by Rihanna's "Loud" poster and features the artist in different shots wearing styles to position her as coming of age. The poster follows conventions of pop/R&B album artwork through fonts, layout, and promoting singles.
Digipak Research (Visual Kei)
This document discusses conventions for visual kei album covers and digipaks. It explains that visual kei covers typically feature a dominant splash image relating to the music's style and content. Track lists are usually on the back. Artist names are less prominent than album titles. Conceptual art is often used to represent the band's style. Requirements include barcodes, labels, and copyright information. The document analyzes specific examples of visual kei covers, noting how artistic imagery and design choices relate to the music and brand the album.
Digipak Analysis
The document discusses digipaks, which are cardboard CD/DVD packaging often with an internal plastic section to hold disks. It provides details on the history and benefits of digipaks for artists. Specifically, it analyzes the 2007 Paramore album "Riot" and its digipak design, noting elements like close-up band images and typography that reinforce the band's genre and allow fans to relate to them. It also briefly analyzes Avril Lavigne's 2013 self-titled album digipak for similar conventions.
Album Covers and Branding
This is the research I completed when searching for album covers related to my chosen genre of music videos.
Cd album mag advert analysis
The magazine advertisement for Rihanna's album "LOUD" features a large image of Rihanna in the center with a smaller image of the album cover in the corner. The layout and design of the ad matches that of the album cover, with Rihanna's name prominently displayed at the bottom. The ad effectively promotes that the album will be personal and about Rihanna's experiences in line with the genre of R&B music. Additionally, the two rings depicted suggest the album will focus on relationships. The ad provides more information than the cover, including examples of songs, implying they may be hits. It aims to appeal to both men and teenage girls through Rihanna's seductive image associated with
Album release
An album release poster advertises a new album by featuring the album artwork and providing information like the release date and record label. It aims to promote popular songs from the album to attract a wider audience beyond just fans. The poster uses visual elements like fonts, images, and colors along with text about the album and artist to inform potential buyers and persuade them to purchase the album.
Brand identity
This document discusses the brand identities of several pop artists including Rita Ora, Maroon 5, Ed Sheeran, Ellie Goulding, and Sam Smith. It analyzes aspects like their album covers, imagery from videos and websites, identifying consistent features. For Rita Ora, her brand focuses on her face and provocative imagery with a black, red, and white color scheme. Maroon 5 uses consistent font but more diverse imagery with a focus on lead singer Adam Levine. Ed Sheeran's brand relies heavily on images of himself and a consistent font with a colorful style. Ellie Goulding's brand has evolved over albums to portray her differently. Sam Smith uses emotional, mysterious black and white images linking
Eval q2
The document discusses the branding and promotion of an indie pop band called "Peace of Lions".
The author created a music video, magazine advertisement, and CD digipak to promote the band's new album. Consistency was important to create a cohesive marketing campaign. Similar fonts, colors, and urban imagery were used across products.
The products are intended to appeal to the target audience of 16-24 year olds by portraying the band members as normal and relatable rather than constructed images. Locations and aesthetic choices also follow conventions of the indie pop genre.
Album release
An album release poster advertises a new album by featuring the album artwork and providing information like the release date and record label. It aims to promote popular songs from the album to attract a wider audience beyond just fans. The poster summarizes key details about the album in a concise way to encourage people to learn more and potentially purchase the album.
Evaluation q 2
The document discusses brand identity for an artist named Jake Dylan. It examines how the artist's logo, font, colors, photography style, and location choices help create a recognizable brand. For Jake Dylan, the logo uses a soft font in white to appeal to the pop-soul genre. Photographs feature the artist in casual clothing against countryside backdrops. While the music video does not include these branding elements to better portray the song's message, the poster and album digitally feature consistent logos, fonts, locations and costumes to clearly identify them with the Jake Dylan brand. In conclusion, the document evaluates how these branding techniques help create a recognizable identity that can increase sales and connect various media pieces to the same artist.

Digipak Analysis.
The document analyzes different types of signs that may be used on album digipaks: iconic, indexical, and symbolic. As an example of an iconic sign, it discusses the Michael Jackson "This Is It" album digipak that features his silhouette and iconic dance moves. Indexical signs require more analysis to understand their meaning, like the vintage photo used for the Of Monsters and Men debut album. Symbolic signs have culturally learned meanings, such as the lungs depicted on the Florence and the Machine "LUNGS" album representing the lungs' anatomical location.

CD Release Poster Analysis
- 1. GIG & CD RELEASE POSTER ANALYSIS.
- 2. ICONIC SIGNS: Producers use iconic signs on gig or CD release posters in order to appeal to that artists fan base and grab their attention. This means they usually include a picture of the artist which has become an iconic public sign. For example, on one of the posters advertising Katy Perry’s 2013 album “Prism” she is seen at the forefront with her name in bold above. They do this in order to hook the audience in before including the major information. The poster also includes the “Prism” album logo in the background meaning they want the logo to become an iconic sign just as Katy Perry’s image.
- 3. INDEXICAL SIGNS: Indexical signs are used when the audience have to break down the deeper meaning behind the poster. Using indexical signs appeals more towards the psychographics of highly educated reformers who are able to see deeper meanings behind different media. For example, the poster for “The Pretty Reckless” tour featured the album artwork for their recent album “Going to Hell.” This is because the songs performed at the tour are mainly from the album. The poster itself features the lead singer Taylor Momsen bare backed with the religious Christian cross that gradually becomes an arrow. This arrow sign has become one of the bands more familiar symbols. Some people would state the arrow is therefore a iconic sign but there is a deeper meaning behind the use of the Christian cross, therefore making it a indexical sign. The Christian cross represents the lead singers Taylor Momsen’s background as I found out she attended a Catholic school and is heavily religious. This sign is therefore a deeper representation to the lead singers background and religion.
- 4. SYMBOLIC SIGNS: Symbolic signs are used in order for audiences to understand common connections that are universally learnt already. For example, in the poster for the “Christmas with STEPS” tour in 2012 the producer has included white costumes and background. The poster features the five members of the pop group STEPS with “glittery” snow falling behind them. This is a symbolic sign as audience’s viewing the poster will see the iconic STEPS logo with the symbolic snow falling. People tend to relate snow to winter and Christmas, which is being portrayed in the poster. This therefore makes the poster symbolic as the universal understanding of white clothes and snow is winter and coldness.
