Inspiration • 1,2,3,4,5 are all ideas for our final album cover. Different ideas where going trough my mind whilst I was

researching different style, ideas for our final album cover. At first I choose an park scenery and Kemique never approved of it she didn't’t like it instead she suggested that we should go for a a graffiti look like some of our music video footage of Nadin. So we had a ruff look on the internet however the ones that Kemique liked we weren't able to use them so we left it.

• I came back and I started researching according to the ideas that came up in my head and I was able to come up with idea 1,2,3,4,5. each of these ideas reflect what our music is all bout and the role that our character plays and I wanted to corporate it tour album covers.

• Idea 1 is more natural and lighter compare to the others. However I still wanted the picture to have some element of graffiti art. The colors and the lighting make the picture look more summering which goes with our music video. As the majority of the scene where outdoor and sunny .

• However idea2 is more powering with darker colors and her body language shows how strong and confident she is. This is exactly how our artist is . She's been through allot and she's stronger than she ever been .That’s what impaired me to chose this picture. Also through her outfits and facial expression you can see how mature she is and the colors makes her stand out.

• Idea 3 is similar to the first one as it has the sunny out dors élément to It . However the artiste Name and Song Name Is bold and the way I layered the Picotures made it look like a 3d affect . It’s diffèrent and like it.

• Idea4 is more of a graffiti wordy cover. It has the word freedom written in the middle as the word freedom is part of the words from the lyrics and its one of the best words to describe her felling in the song so I decided to keep it simple .

• The last idea is one of my favorite and I love and my worry is that our final original album cover wont come as close to this one. As this one is done by a professional but we will try our best . Idea 5 is base on a close up of black girl with puffy hair and in her hair are gratify writings of different things that represent her . And these worlds can also be used in order to describe our artist and her song plus personality. This picture is also colorful and the main color that stands out is pink , red and black .
