CD Cover

The CD Cover we produced as team shows how we incorporated all the different aspects of the music video into the product. Not only do we show our material possessions but also poking fun of ourselves and the genre with the gun. The bag at the front of the CD is there for those who have already watched the video as well as those who haven't as it would add an element of mystery as to what it represents. We also have the obvious post modernism in it as reference to the Scarface style of advertising. The black and white in all the four boxes. We have followed the Scarface template with the informative part of the CD Case on the right. People may assume we are trying to put across an image of gangster or criminals but once the video is watched it would become apparent that we are taking the genre lightly.
We edited this using Photoshop, I learned the "Scarface technique" by watching tutorials and following them, then applying them to various pictures until I perfected it which is displayed in the intricate black and white work on the hand of the character in the top left hand corner.
