Bastille Album Cover

When looking at the EP album cover for Bastille's, Bad Blood, a girl is seen to be in the sea. This image comes from the music video. This is also what I am planning to do for my digipak. When considering the composition of the artwork, the girl is at the top.This puts attention on the girl as it seems like she is the odd thing out in the image. The sky is blue the water is of a similar colour but the theres a girl with black hair looking as if she is about to drown. The bands name is central on the album cover in a large, bold, capitalized font. The font is further in a sans-serif type, likewise to the typography on the album covers by Scouting For Girls. Aligning the font central allows the audience to instantly recognize the artist of the track, displaying the most important information in paramount position. The triangular symbol, representing the A in Bastille lets the audience further identify the band, acting as a logo to the bands name. The positioning of the text additionally draws the attention of the audience, making their eye track different paths of the typography, looking over the totality of the album cover. Finally, the typography is white in colour, acting as a contrast to the artwork, allowing the text to distinctly stand out as it has been superimposed onto the image face.
