From the above similar artists' album covers, we can tell that the main focus is the lead female vocalist or a female cartoon character. From these examples, it has become apparent that we could feature Ellie centre front on our Alleyways' EP cover. However, to 'stand out from the crowd', we could feature the entire band to gain extra publicity and/or attention.
The second Tonight Alive album, 'The Other Side' has a running theme of lime green and light leaks which is shown on both the front and the back of the CD. Lights' 'the Listening' is purple and cartoonish with a 'horror' theme on both the front and the back. Charli XCX's 'TRUE ROMANCE' has a running theme of spaced-out capital letters and there is a stark contrast between the white and purple but there is a trail of galaxy within her portrait on the front.
We are going to try and emulate these ideas linking the back and front covers of the digipak.
