We conducted research into the views of our target audience in relation to album covers. Following feedback we have found a preference for more understated images, where perhaps positioning or facial expression portrays the main theme. We have taken this into consideration when planning our ancillary task shoot - we plan to shoot medium close ups of our chosen model so that she is in focus and so that there is nothing distracting in the background to take away from the artist and the music.
Following feedback regarding the colour scheme, we plan to shoot a range of shots using different colour schemes in the models clothes and makeup, to which we will enhance in later editing stages.
