In what ways does you media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? *

My album cover shows the the contrasting artists. We split the images in half and combined them together to show the difference between the two, as one artist is wealthy and has made it and the other is still upcoming and trying to be successful. When collaborating the two and placing their faces on the front of the album cover, the audience will get to know the artists by face and begin to recognize their music more.
Placing the images of the artists on the front cover is a common creative effect which is popular in the Hip Hop genre as the music Hip Hop artists play are more about the artist and quite personal sometimes.
Here our artists are staring straight at the audience to connect with them through eye contact. This draws the audience attention and encourages them to listen to the music.



Rihanna's album 'Rated R' is the key inspiration to our album front cover design. It shows the face has been split but here, by her own hand, creating mystery. Again the artist here is looking straight at its audience to draw them in. I feel it also creates emotion and engages with the viewer. The appeal of this creative effect is simplistic and works well to attract the audience.
