This is Kelly Clarkson’s album cover. The reason that I’ve decided to look at this album cover is because she is a young pop star, which is what our band are. There are very few female duo pop acts but by looking at solo female pop stars we will get a better idea as to the style of album cover we should create as the albums of a solo female and a female duo is likely to be similar as they are both singing the same genre of music and both trying to attract the same target audience.
This album cover is fairly simple. Like we have seen with the other covers Clarkson features on the cover, with the image dominating the cover. In the image she is wearing fairly casual clothes. This would be something that we would be more likely to do for our cover, mainly because of the budget we have to shoot for our cover. The relaxed costume on the front cover fits in with Kelly Clarkson’s star image because she is not known for looking overly glamorous and she isn’t known for having front covers which are particularly artistic or overly original, tending to stick to simple album covers.
This album cover also features her name on the cover, rather bold and large so that we instantly know whose album this is. The name has proved to be a key feature on the cover of a pop album, meaning that when it comes to creating our album cover we need to have a bold title.
This cover also uses simple block colour in the background. This style would be something that we would consider because it would be a simple look to achieve but would still look effective and still make the album distinctively pop. Colour has also proved key on our cover.
