3 Cover Remakes

Coldplay- Vida la Vida

I used a picture of the French Revolution painting from google. Then I found the most similar font online. However I couldn't recreate the paint.

This album cover uses a well known painting of the French Revolution, then used a font like a paint brush. There's also paint splattered across the cover.

The whole theme presents the band as being eccentric, but also playful with the use of the font and paint. Because the colour is white, the overall effect isn't as dark as it would be if it were red...

The font type can be used to inspire our album, as it's playful. The overall theme of war also links to our theme or war paint...

 

 New Order- Power, Corruption, Lies

I took a photo of flowers, then on a PowerPoint document I copied the photo into two. I first photo I used at the background: into grayscale and used an effect. The second one I reduced the vibrancy of the flowers and got rid of the background, then placed it on top of the first photo. I then used shapes to create the boxes on the top right.  

This album cover is very simple, using only a picture and few symbols.

The overall image of this picture is primarily less dark to when you read the title. Because there is no title, it's dark to guess what the music inside may be about.

The idea of flowers does link with out artist. 

 

VHS Orbeta- Bring on the Comets

I used acrylic paint and made interesting textures, which I then took a picture of and edited online. I changed the vibrancy, and then added a textbox to create the text.

 

 The album has an explosion of colours, which can link to out artists theme of war paint. The vibrancy of the colours is effective, we could use this. The overall image is very simple, overall the last three albums has a feel of more rock genres. But there are certain aspects which we can use as inspiration.
