ConclusionThere are many codes and convention that all albums have they’re usually very bold and eye-catching towards their target audience which makes them easily identifiable who the artist and what's their album name. Most albums use a close-up portrait of the artist which can create a star image for the artist making their reputation become recognizable to the public. There is also synergy between the album and website such as the pictures, fonts and colour theme that has potential to become a signature look. I chose these two albums to analysis as they have the black and white attribute that I was looking into so that I could add it onto my design as well as it focuses on the artist as a focal point making their artist become notice straight away when first looking at the album which my album will have similar. On top of this the artist name and artist album name always are bold and caught by the eye straight away.
