CONVENTIONS OF CD COVER

• Most cd covers we have researched use a simplistic colour scheme and design and we decided that we the colour scheme of our CD cover would be using the same colour scheme as well as being simplistic.

• Most of the CD covers we have researched have few or no characters all. 

• They use a different colour for the band name compared to the rest of the cover, the font for the band name is usually Bold, simple fonts. For the title of the album, the font can be similar or entirely opposite of the band name.

• CD covers usually includes title that explains to the audience what the album will be about .The covers tend to give a vague idea about what music they would be expecting on the album, but generally I think they mainly reflect the artist's personality.

• The back of CD cover usually include the name of the band at the very top and name of the album beneath this. it also include list of song tittles on the centre of the page. 

• CD covers usually have barcode in the bottom right to left of the corner of the page at the back of the CD cover.
