Original Photos Front cover of digipack

These two photos were not good enough to use as the front cover of my album. This is for two main reasons as well as the other photos taken at the same time are slightly better.

1. The photos are blurred due to not using a tripod with the camera and movement from the band members.

2. The photos look staged and un-natural. The arrangement and instructions behind the photographs are too vague and not distinct enough.

This also became the problem in these two photos. I found out that movement and positioning was becoming an increasingly problematic area.

Being in a band with two other 17 year old lads, we were never going to get a serious photo shoot. However in these photos, there is far too much movement and “messing about” going on to use as the front cover

We were getting closer to the kind of photo I wanted for the front of the digipack but once again there was too much movement in the frame of these photos.

It was cold in the mill where we practice therefore it was difficult to keep the camera still. But I couldn’t use these photos even though the positioning had improved. Theblurred pixels meant that the quality in the photo decreased dramatically.

This is the final photo that I chose to use as the front cover. It is natural and clear

I took this photo into photo shop and de-saturated it to keep to the conformities of the Indie/Indie-rock, simple genre.
