Album/Single Covers

Front Cover of Album



This is our front cover for the single of the video we created. Myself and Lewis (media partner) decided we wanted to do a simplistic cover design to emulate those of System of a Down (check blog for details). We did this by taking a simple picture of me as Serj Tankian above a steep drop in a wooded area holding a microphone as a weapon. We then decided to use the bands signature font (downloaded form dafont.com) and overlap the text over the cliff edge in a white colour so that it stood out against the mossy cliff face.




Back of the Album Cover

This is the back of the single that we made. The picture on the back depicts me as Serj Tankian but this time being hung from the branch of the tree that was seen on the front cover. We felt this was effective as it shows two sides to the songs and refers closely to the video; with the quick change in setting. Again we used Systems signature font and listed authentic record details near the bottom of the picture. We chose to include not only the title track 'Question!' but two acoustic songs;one of 'Question!' and old hit 'Chop Suey' from the toxicity album.
