- 2. Idea 1 Just theband FOR • Simple to produce • Visual focus on the band’s unique look and personality • Bright colours on a clean white background as a strong visual device for attracting attention • Focus is on the band’s eclecticism & post-modern surrealism • Using a really ‘retro’ font to suggest ROY’s retro style AGAINST • No connection to the song topic, nor the video, on the cover • The font may deceive as being genuinely old and outdated • The approach is based just on archive material + stock photography • Font colour not 100% legible on the back cover • Will people understand the irony?

- 5. Idea 2 Orange &Greeen FOR • Simple to produce, clean look • Both quaint & modern like ROY • Using a period font (50s) to reflect ROY’s band personality • Based on images of badly cut grass and broken lawnmowers • Using strong orange colour of ROY shirts & the Flymo brand as the main background colour • Back cover look & feel directly related to the topic of the song • Would look nice as a thumbnail on streaming services AGAINST • Probably too plain & ‘obvious’ • Potential that some audiences will mistake it for just ‘uncool’: will the irony be obvious? • Font difficult to read on the textured background, as well as in small sizes • The front cover design does not really connect the band with the song topic (but it does with the video) • Inside panels would be a combination of the same elements – as in the moodboard
