Researching and analysing album covers

This is the album cover Britney Speares album called Femme Fatale. The colours used on this cover are very elegant and soft. Britney Spears look as if she fades into the background this creates a good effect. Her eyes have been enhanced on the cover which is the main focal point of the picture because it is the first feature of the picture that caputres the attention. Britney Spears looks very elegant in the picture the flow in the hair is also incorpoated in the font of the text "Femme Fatale".  The lighting in the hair emphasises the face. The album cover reflects her songs because her songs for example in her song "Hold it against me" shes has lyrics that say "Hate to stare" this is ironik because on her album cover her most enhanced features are her eyes almost look as if they are staring at you which engages the audience at first look. In this song she also has lyrics like "Cause you feel like paradise" this is reflected on the album covers with the colours white and gold which connotes paradise.



This is Keri Hilson's song cover to her song Energy. The colours on this cover itself refelects the song really well. The text is very bold just like her lip which makes it very attractive.The sharp pink brings out the "Energy" in the album cover. The use of a very sharp pink on a black background on this cover is the main highlight as throughout the song she talks about energy over and over "this love is taking all of my energy". The use of dots fading from in from small to big on the cover mirror energy levels from weak to strong. The main attention on the cover is "Keri" her name and her face, this is probably trying to show that she is the main centre of attention in this song, this is very well reproduced in her music video as she is the main character in the video. The use of her pink lip and strong highlights in her hair really stress the fact that its about ME!
