Album ideas inspired by sirens






These are our primary sources that we are going to use on our CD ocver. This is the original version. Once Ronnie had drawn this picture, Ronnie took a photo of it on her phone, and then added different effects. We have chosen to draw this picture because it follows our research on Sirens that we have done earlier on. The next steps are to put the images on the iMac, so that we can use the photoshop to edit it to perfection that suits a real life CD cover. We may also use this image on our website too.





Above I took the photo we found and put an effect on it as well as cut the bottom part off as it think that this part of the picture shows the band is pretty and they are good sirens.



Above I hand drew the pictures using the picture we found and then painted them and went over the finer details in a black pen to make them stand out. I took inspiration from the cartoon Ariel. 




Ronnie did the three pictrues above.
This is an initial idea for the title of teh CD cover. Similarly to the picture of the siren, Ronnie hand drawn this first and then transported it onto Photoshop.
Whilst on the photoshop, Ronnie decided that she did not want to have the paper background on the CD cover and thus, she used the "eraser tool" and erased all the background, untill she was left with no paper. The writing is now 'not as neat', but decided to keep it like this because it carries a mysterious look, which goes well with the theme of sirens. Ronnie added a bit of colour to the siren and left the 'reflected siren' black and white. This is becasueshe  believed that the black and white looked most effective and scary, whereas she chose warm, welcoming colours for the siren above. She chose this contrast to emphasize on the duplicity of sirens.
