When researching for our CD covers and tour poster for an acoustic artist I was intrigued by the use of natural imagery being used, a prime example of this is Jason Mraz:
The use of natural imagery is usually linked to the acoustic genre which suggests that this will attract listeners as just from seeing this tour poster they will know the type of music that Jason Mraz is involved in. This tour poster made me aware of how important it is to show what type of genre the artists music is. So when creating our tour poster i suggested we also use an asbect of nature, this lead to our main central image being an oak tree. The oak tree is a symbol of power, this helped us convey that we think Bellia Diem will be a success in the music industry. Also the Oak tree is a sacred old tree so this could suggest that Bella diem are going back to the old music roots with the songs they produce, they are not trying to be a modern band.
Throughout all our media products we have used birds as a continous theme. We thought by doing this fans of Bellia Diem will look for this symbol and it will help to promote merchandise.
The use of the colour red makes our media products look striking and powerful, it draws attention to our covers. It also provides a contrast to the black and white effect which makes it stand out even more.
The song titles that we use are very significant to our artist. We included very short titles as when researching song titles from acoustic artists we noticed that they were very short, abstract and complex e.g.Laura Marlings album 'Alas i cannot swim' mainly contained song titles of one or two words- 'Ghosts', 'Shine' and 'Old stone'. This could suggest the simplicity of the artists music which links to the simple nature of acoustic music.
