1. Similar examples of album
covers.
Our band ‘wonderland’ has a genre of
indie rock. Throughout this presentation I
will be noting what the different existing
covers have in common and how they
will influence, out future designs.

2. The Strokes
This first album cover consists of a very
structural layout. This idea would link well
with our music video concept because the
layout of the squares will link well with the
dolls house structure. The contrasting colours
of black, red and yellow, work effectively
together, and I like how the title of the band
has been shown on a black background.
This second image, shows a distortion of the
band name, the use of square cut out letter is
also used, to hide the face. We could do a
similar thing, but using the words
‘wonderland’ and the cut out letter with
backgrounds of similar dolls house wall
paper. Also instead of using letters we could
use a mixture of normal furniture or
cardboard furniture.

3. The Death Cab for Cutie
This low to high angle photo of an apartment block
portrays the idea of the dolls house. The use of calm
neutral colours is effective and would link well with
the use of cardboard throughout the music video.
I like the idea of having the front of the album cover,
covered in old photo films, of different shots and
memories from the bed, inside the dolls house and the
couples relationship. The old photo frame conveys a
old feel to the concept, which is true in that we are
using a dolls house and now a days young children
don’t use dolls houses.

4. The Wombats
The image to the right reminds
me of Polaroid picture. I feel that
I would be effective to take
several picture of inside the dolls
house and with the actors using a
polaroid camera.
A similar thing to this could be used by using a
polaroid camera, with the normal furniture and
the cardboard furniture.

The link above shows a picture which is set up almost as a setting
in a dolls house. There are several different sections with different
things inside.

5. This image could be a possible idea for
the back of the CD cover. This picture is
also been taken from the wombats
Album. I like this idea because it links
with the dolls house and the trapped
perfect world, However this image
shows that it is not perfect because of
the messy run down loook.
This image inspired me to think
about have the inside of the dolls
house in the background and then
the track names over the top, like
shown on the right.

6. Mumford and Sons
Although Mumford and sons isn't part of
the indie rock, this album cover portrays a
very strong image. I like the fact that the
band are positioned on the inside of a
shop on a street. I also like how you can
see the other shops and apartments in the
shot. The fact that they are behind the
shop window suggests they are being
trapped. This feeling is also conveyed
through out music video concept though
using the dolls house.
This idea is unique, on the front cover there
could be lots of cupboards and in some
cupboards there is the male of female actor and
in other normal furniture and cardboard
furniture.

7. Mumford and Sons
Although Mumford and sons isn't part of
the indie rock, this album cover portrays a
very strong image. I like the fact that the
band are positioned on the inside of a
shop on a street. I also like how you can
