Album cover

The image used of Katy Perry is to show her innocent side. The high key lighting helps to empathize this side to her. Also the positioning of her hand on her chin looks seductive because she is also staring into the camera, trying to draw the audience in. The use of the flowers in the background help to show that Katy Perry is innocent, this might mean that the target audience for the album is at a teenage age bracket. The title of the album is called 'PRISM' the font is in white lines and not completely covered in. This font has a relation to the title because the Lines suggest barriers in a prison cell and because the title is called 'PRISM' this has a relation. The artist name is at the top of the album which can suggest that she wants to be the most important part of the album by having her name at the top.

The back of the album cover shows more attitude in the face of Katy Perry. This is because she has got her hands crossed over and is looking at the camera in a moody way. However the Rainbow and the high key lighting and flowers which surround her contrast the attitude which Katy Perry is showing. This is because flowers are meant to be a happy thing and a gift to somebody. The titles of the album are positioned in a triangle surrounding the artist. The back of the album has also got the record label and who has published the album.

The image used of 50 cent shows aggression, anger and passion. This suggests that the song is going to come from the heart and all the lyrics which are heard in the songs 50 cent is going to mean it. The shattered glass in the image also suggests that he has smashed it which can also mean he smashed the album with the music which is on there. The lack of clothing and the tattoos and big chain around his neck are stereotypes of a traditional gangster. The title of the album is in a really small font which suggests that he wants the image to be the main focus on the album. The artists name on the album is on the right hand side of the screen in a reasonable size text for the audience to notice. The red and black background cover suggest danger and to back this up is that parental advise is needed to listen to the video.

This is the back cover to the 50 cent album cover. 'Get Rich Or Die Tryin'. This image shows that the artist is always looking over his back because of the lifestyle that he lives, for example the title of the album 'Get Rich Or Die Tryin' suggests danger. Also the fact that he is a gangster backs this up. The tattoo in the image tells me that he has a story to tell and that is why the tattoo is portrayed in the image. The titles of the songs are in a column form in small writing which suggests that he wants the image to be the vocal point of the back cover. The title at the bottom executive producers " DR.DRE and EMINEM" is put on the album to show that he is working with the biggest stars in the industry.
