Album Artwork Analysis- 2

This is the album artwork for Daft Punk discovery which was one of their album covers. I chose this piece of artwork as its very simple to the eye but I like the two layers of colour on each individual letter of the title. Seeing I want to use a lot of colour on my cover this particular piece of artwork stood out to me, even though its a small amount of colour being used it still stands out and gets my attention. This artwork shows that the album is all about colour and originality as the band members aren't shown on the front cover which is normally used on band covers. I like this idea but I do think it looks a little plain but works well with the sort of genre of music they do. Daft Punk is electric music that is also known as house music which goes well with the lettering font as its static like its moving on the page as its blurry like its electric and slowly moving into different shapes. The background of the picture is black but lighter around the title which shows the letters being very bright and makes the bands name stand out even more. I think this all contributes to the cover looking sharp and edgy which is done by the editing making the words glow on the page and the small amount of colour under the letters blasts out giving it a electric feel. As the genre of the band is electric you would expect to see something bright and illuminous on a dark background so you can get the whole affect of the feel of the electric music. The colours of the letters contrasts with the black ground and that makes the colours stand out more from behind the letters which makes it eye catching.

The bold, but very edgy look of the band name goes well with the electric effect we see going on in the over all photo. This gives an impression that the title has been done recently on a moving object like speakers as the font of the title looks shaken and wobbly like its been made this way to get the best effect. The name of the band is shown in the middle of the page as there are no other images on the page so this is the main feature which is shown quite big so it'll get the audiences attention. This technique could be hard to do unless you do it right but I like the idea of it as it would fit in with the style im going for.

Overall I find the album cover very inspirational as it shows me how to use colour on a page to make it get the best effect and make it come across to the audience well which I might include when making my digipack.
