Information:

Genre: Pop/Country

Reasoning: For the marjority of this assesment i have based it around things that have happend to me during my lifetime. The reasons i have chosen to do this genre is because 'country' reflects my past. i personally don't like country music but i have grown up in the country so it that is the reason i have chose to do this genre. I also have based the tracks around things that are important to me in my life. 

Colour Schemes: I chose a colour scheme that was a sepia tone. I then carried this colour scheme throughout the cover using browns and a shade of beige for the main title. I feel that the tones give the cover a warm country feel.

Imagery: All the imagery for this assessment had to be our own. I chose to put myself on the cover but i didn't just want to plain and simply put my face on the cover so i have only placed half on my face on the front. On the back i have then placed an image of myself again but this time i have used the rear of my head. This gives the illusion that it is the 'front and back' of the left side of my face.

Typeface: For this particular task i chose to use 3 different typefaces. I tried to choose fonts that were easy enough to read, but still eye catching. Throughout the album i have used a script font for my name which is close to something i got with an engraving on it when i was little. I have also used two different basic serif and san serif fonts.
