CD Cover Analysis - Red Hot Chili Peppers "By The Way"

Red Hot Chili Peppers "By The Way"

This album cover is extremely creative and artistic and is extremely unusual for a artist. However it does look very good and would catch the eyes of people looking at the cover very well, this would be a good marketing strategy as it is bright and unique. The back ground of the image looks like a usual miami type beach with parm trees and sand, however we dont see the sea and therefore cant assume this, however you could percive that as the woman is the sea as she is blue.

The actual design would be very hard for someone of my level to try and create as i think that you need to know how to draw extremely well by the view of this album cover and have this type of image set in your mind when you were creating the album.

The colours in the images look and work extremely well, and the unusual text placement works with the image as overall it is different and quirky.

Overall i think this is a very unusal album cover, but works well in its own right. The weird colours and layouts add a qwirky feel and cathches the eye's of people looking at it. I think this would be very difficult to make our own and dont think it would fit in with our them of the song choice and therefore we wont be using something as artistic as this.
