I have decided to start this process by doing some extensive research of album covers from within similar genres. I have created this visual reference page, but I have also created various different diagrams and case study reports as seen below.
Now that I have a wealth of influences and references I feel comfortable with the conventions of album covers and I am ready to start drafting ideas.
Initial Ideas
We have started to come up with multiple different potential ideas and I do think that all my research has been really beneficial to developing and challenging my creativity.
Here is a spider diagram of our main theme ideas so far. As you can see below, ideas are very varied and we haven't really decided upon any particular type of concept. Although we are not that near a final planned choice, by roughly drafting a wide range of ideas it will help us reach a strong final design that has a very strong underlying concept and theme.
Our First Idea
We have now developed one of our ideas further and here is the flat plan that we have created for this idea.
Our Second Idea
Although we do like this idea, we have all agreed that we should consider our other different ideas so I created another couple of flat plans for this idea.
Overall, I quite like both of these ideas and I don't think that the fact that we haven't made a definite decision is negative at all. If anything I think would be good to continue to constantly reflect and develop our ideas in order to decide which concept has more validity.
