We have chosen to use this image on our front cover of our digipack as it shows the artists face. We really like it as it has a balance between totally natural and subtley posing as it gives a good strong image. 

However we have decided we are only going to use the facial area and cut out the rest of the image then super impose his face on to another background.

 The reason we want to do this is because we dont want all the images to be too "samey" and we want to give a bit of variety. Hopefully by doing this we will get across all aspects of our artist, therefore capturing more audience members. 

Here we have looked at different album covers from the same music genre and we feel that if we had this image in complete form with no cutting or super imposing we would be too simular to these artists.

 

By diverting from what the general theme is we are challenging the conventions of the usual styles of indie musicians and singer songwriters. 

We know this is a bit of a risk but we want to create an album which is going to stand out from other albums on the market but that link in with the same genre of music.
