Spray Paint Productions
Press release

Originally we wanted the press release as in the shape of a spray can (in relation to our record label 'spray paint productions) but it seemed a bit too complicated. our band is not meant to be very flashy and mainstream, its supposed to seem independent and individual.
therefore we still took the spray can motif but used a simple rectangular background.
we took a photo of ryan's hand holding a spray can and used effects on the PC to change it to look painted. we also made the artists name 'Shania Mckie' some out of the noxxle as if it was being sprayed out.
we also made bold and lighter purple any words or phrases we thought would be important.
Back cover of CD
we originally thought about a butterfly on the back cover of our CD cover because little girls and boys usually chase them trying to catch them in a net. we also wanted pastel colours for the background and a little bit bolder colours for teh writing.

however, we found that many people didn't like this background or theme, they thought it too showy or complicated, so we aimed for something a bit more simplistic. taht is when we remembered the pictures we took of the background in the performance shots. unfortunatly using the picture wouldn't work, but it did give us inspiration and we finalised on the idea of simple lines runing down the cover in the pink, purple and red theme

ideas for front cover and press release

our original idea for the front cover of our CD was the four lips in differernt colours, unfortunatly, this did not look as good as we hoped. therefore we re-thought our options. the lips were a good idea, but the colours were all wrong. while practicing with ideas, i came across a black and white face but with incredibly coloured lips. this brought about the idea of doing the same thing but using the idea of 4 different coloured lips.
The final product is below. The title of the album was called 'Memory lane' because it connotates looking back which is explored in our music video with the little girl.
we wanted the overall colour scheme to be pink because of the perfomance shots of the artist, also we wanted red writing as it would stand out clearly.
