Cd Cover Ideas For Front And Back And Artist Name Ideas

• A Polaroid camera around a girls neck and a rail of films and photo albums.
I think this will suggest a mysterious element. I dont want the girl to be linked with the video, just to be sat with the camera around her neck. The camera will signify photographs which will link with memories which is the main theme of the video and song. The range of different photographs in albums and on a rail will suggest a hectic fun life and the idea she has a lot of memories. The idea that she is by herself suggests lonesome. so the idea of her not loosing someone close to her so she looks at the photos to remind her of the happy times she used to have.
• A selection of different photographs of both Tom and myself, a page of me, a page of Tom and a page of either both of us, or the camera itself
This will just link with the video and i would use images from the video to put on the cd and magazine advertisment so the viewer can link them with the video.
• A empty skull full of photographs
this is unusual and different, this would show a slightly more ery effect to the whole idea. the empty skull would represent a head, and the photos would suggest that everyone has memories and those memories are stored in a persons head. So the skull filled with photos would suggest that people experience things, see things, do different things and take photos but the photos are a flash of the memory, the image itself stays in your head.
• A close up of an eye with a picture of us both in the eye ball
This would be slightly abstract. Just a simple eye and in that eye would be a picture, probably one from the video itself to link with the theme. this would suggest that once you look at a person, that image is in your head and the eyes are a main thing that identifies a memory.
• An extreme close up of a girl with a picture in both eyes of Tom
This is similar to the one above apart from their would be two pictures, and they would suggest to the audience the theme of love and relationships which links with the video.
• A boy with a picture stuck to his head, a blank picture representing photographs take a still image but not the entire memory.
this is pretty self explanitory. the empty image shows that a picture isnt for life, the memory is.
• A selection of blurry, faded, blank photographs
this is a similar reference to the one above
•A simple background, either trees, clouds or a wall, with the title and song, or a picture of the artist.

Artist Name Ideas.

The title of my song is photobooth.
The original artist is a band called Friendly Fires.
We have to alter the artists name but were allowed to keep the song. I have thought of a numerous amount of new artist/band names.
In my music video, images of a boy and a girl are shown, a boy playing a guitar and another boy dancing. So either of these options could be my band or artist. I have decided to have the boy (Thomas Townsend) whos is acting allongside myself in the music video to be on the poster and the cd cover for my digipack and anxillary texts as he fits the criteria i am trying to portray more than the others, and i believe is more photogenic. also the boy playing the guitar is the band member so i dont want him advertising the new single.
potential names:
Tommy T- Tommy Townsend (Tommy T)

Strings attatched- as i feel this links with the idea that the instrunment seen played in the video is a guitar therefore strings are what consists in a guitar. Also the idea of relationships starting andd ending in the video, and the theme memories, this links with the title because i feel when a relationship begins or ends you still have strings attached to that person. It comes from the cliche metaphor, 'strings attached.'

The Morning After- the band specialises in teenage lifestyles, and the idea of going out the night before and getting drunk then realising the morning after what you did. this would target the audience i feel.

I have decided on strings attactched as Strings attacthed-(the idea that two lovers are drawn appart from each other, sharing memories then being seperated)
