We would like to incorporate Rob Zombie's album art into our own but again make it unique. His albums usually feature him as the main image and dark lettering with alternative imagery behind, next to him or non al all. A lot of the time it only focuses on him.
Also, he uses a handful of symbols on his album covers but we do not wish to do this and hope to create our own personal style but something which will mirror the work of our case study.
The back cover of his albums are as interesting as the front for example,
For our album, the colour will be dark and abstract. We will be having the members of the band on the front cover against an abstract background.
For the inside panels, we will possibly have an image of Courtney or Alex with a dark background colour scheme which will hold the ideology of death as most metal album art does.
For the back cover of the album, we will have a list of songs and again some abstract imagery.
Because we will have to make our own artwork etc, we are going to use an image taken from our video which we use for the background. The graveyard shots and have members of the band on it either sat down or standing.
Or something more like this which also looks similar to something you would find in a Rob Zombie music video.
For our other ancillary task we have to create an advertisement for our album which are usually featured in music magazines such as Metal Hammer and Kerrang.
Our advert will be dark in colour and will consist of Alex as a zombie, holding the album up in his hand.
Or we have thought about using our poster idea from our video, in which Courtney is seen in and instead, placing the band there for our advert.
We could also use both ideas as we can place the band inside the poster while Alex peers over the top or from another angle.
Other ideas for our front cover are that we can use a still shot of Alex's hand when he is rising from the ground and colour correct it. Then on the inside of the front cover, we will have a shot of the whole band in costume and possibly no instruments but we will try both to see which looks more professional. On the inside of the back cover we will have a still shot of courtney in her poster and for the back a distorted image of a graveyard shot we filmed.
