Little mix Cover Idea!!!!!

this was just a quick design that i created as an idea for what i wanted to do for my album cover, i took the picture off a picture of the band at an award event and then used photoshop to cut them out and i refined the edge and then in illustrator i created a simple box and covered it with the flag hen used the 3d effect, i did the same with letters, started with making them  with the simple pen tool and coloured them in i then made them 3d and added them to the box.

i then moved everything into photoshop into one document and moved the band to look as if they they are holding up a sign with their band name on it, once i did that it still looked every edited so i added a slight blur to the whole image this just made everything murge together better and took as if it was a real photo that had been taken.

i really think that the final outcome has worked really well and looks really good, this would be good for my album cover because they look like they are having fun and they are dressed in very summery clothes so it fits in with the theme of my summer album, also having their name is very important as its an album cover the band names needs to be on it to show who they are. i chose the colours for the text because after doing research on little mix and what they prepresent on my pinterest from my research i can see that they like to have fun and use bold pop colours which is why i chose to use them colours also from my mood board on the blog there name is always in different colours so i wanted to keep my design true to their brand. also i chose the flag because they are very british and came off a british show called the factor so everything makes sense and the whole design links in with the brand. and i love the final outcome and the way it screams fun and summer this would fit perfectly.

the one thing that i don't think worked that well was that the type the word mix you cant really see the letter I if i was to do this again i would definitely change that and make the lettering clearer, another thing that i would change slightly is that when cutting out the group from an existing picture i would make the edge neater. these are thing that i would change just to make the design even more perfect. but overall I'm really happy with the outcome and love the colours and how it comes together.
