Album Art Research - Parallel Lines

This is a denotation of Blondie's 'Parallel Lines', although it could be considered somewhat outdated, it is a very iconic album and has several factors which could influence our planning around our album cover

How this influences us:

• We will definitely use a different text for band name and album name to present a band identity separate from the album
• We will use a chain motif to create synergy between the front and back of the album
• Using composition and mise-en-scene we will demonstrate that Arianna is the front woman of our band
• Clearly using images of performance can be effective but we will have to think about how we will grade, edit and compose our shots
• We need to think more about the colour scheme
• Background clearly has a big effect on the overall aesthetics of the album so we will need to consider this in more detail in our planning
