This is how the CD cover looks at the moment without the background done yet am i am struggling to find a good enough effect or pattern on the photoshop. It looks well presented and has empty space on the CD cover that makes it look boring. It looks similar to a real CD cover i believe and now just hope to find a background that will make it look more interesting to look at and bring more colour to the whole cover. I need to becarefull with my background and need to make sure it is suited with the effect i have used on the picture, which is the main thing i am finding hard to find a background that suits and fits in well with the photo.

This is presented on the side of the front cover, this catchs the customer eye and makes them more interested in picking up the CD automatically if they see good reviews for it especially if it is by a well known music company such as NME. If the audience seen 5 stars they would believe it to be very good.
I also have mentioned the a well known and special award which was also won by the artist this year for best new comer into the music industry.
I have used the grey circle to show what genre of music it is to the audience/customer as he is a new artist and may be unknown to many people.

This is the text i decided to use it is a fancy and interesting text to look at. The text involved the artists name 'JUST MUZ' and the name of the album 'SOULFULSTUFF'. It is important that these two pieces of information are easily read and can be seen and noticed.
As the customer often looks for CD through there name and not what the album looks liek as they often do not have a clue. I have used a basic colour which stands out on the background but is quiet a boring colour, but this does mean that the image is more interesting and not the text which is the way i want it. To catch the audience's views by the backround and image and so much by the text.

This is the finished image of the photo i had taken before it. This is what it looked liked after i used the magic lasso tool and had brushed around the outside of the image hiding any bit that the lasso tool did not manage to remove.
This image has been given an effect to match with the background i had planed which was a tiled black background. I thought that having a normal image would not go with the background and also would look a bit boring and not interesting.
Also i have played around with the colouring of the image to make it brighter and to give the actually photo more of a warm colour as in the photo it looked, cold and lacked a bit of colour.

This is the very first stage i took a picture of my artist with some thourght of mise-en-scene, here he has large head phones which are the new style now this helps to show he is a artist and show he is knows about fashion which his fans will follow and copy.
It is a basic photo with a plain background i have used this as i knew what i wanted to do with the photo before i took it that involved using the magic lasso tool to go around his head and only have his head and my own background for my front cover.
