The document describes a survey conducted to get audience input on aspects of album covers to help design an original cover. Questions gauged preferences for font, color, pose, design, props/actors, and location of four sample covers. Cover D was most popular overall. The survey results will inform experimenting with fonts like covers B and D, colorful and sepia tones like A and D, poses with multiple objects/creatures like the popular covers, designs similar to D, and props from C and D placed in a barren setting surrounded by other objects/creatures. The conclusion is that cover D's abstract feel best fits the song/genre and will be used as inspiration for the original design.

1. ALBUM COVER
QUESTIONNAIRE
A look into what my target
audience would like to see from
my own cover.

2. INITIAL IDEA
 I conducted a
survey based
upon these four
album covers. I
then asked the
audience
questions
based upon
which aspects
of each cover
they liked the
best.

3. QUESTION 1- WHICH COVER DID YOU
FEEL HAD THE BEST FONT?
Album Covers
A
B
C
D
From this question, I will attempt to do a font similar to either D or B’s font
style.

4. QUESTION 2 – WHICH COVER DID YOU
FEEL HAD THE BEST USE OF COLOUR?
Album Covers
A
B
C
D
From this question I will try out both a colorful style and a sepia-based
tone to see which works best since A and D are nearly equal.

5. QUESTION 3 – WHICH COVER DID YOU
FEEL HAD THE BEST USE OF POSE?
Album Covers
A
B
C
D
From this question I will try to use a pose of many different objects and
creatures since both of the popular covers in this question represent this.

6. QUESTION 4 – WHICH COVER DID YOU
FEEL HAD THE BEST DESIGN?
Album Covers
A
B
C
D
From this question I will experiment with similar designs to D since it is the
most popular.

7. QUESTION 5 – WHICH COVER DID YOU
FEEL HAD THE BEST USE OF
ACTORS/PROPS?
Album Covers
A
B
C
D
From this question I will experiment using types of props from C and D but
both of these are quite similar already so I have a clear idea what I’d like to
try.

8. QUESTION 6 – WHICH COVER DID YOU
FEEL HAD THE BEST LOCATION?
Album Covers
A
B
C
D
From this question I will place my actors/props in a baron-like setting being
surrounded by other objects/creatures rather than an actual setting.

9. CONCLUSION
From conducting this survey the most popular cover was cover D. I will
attempt to recreate a cover similar to this one when I design my own. I was
very happy this one came out to be the most popular due to the abstract
feel it has and I feel it would fit in well with my song/genre and album
cover.
