Photographic case study - 1



Photographic case studies. Above is an album cover of a Dubstep artist called Distance. The album cover uses a photograph as the main focus point. The photograph is of some buildings within a city; the lighting in the photo is very dark though lights in the building have been illuminated which gives a futuristic effect. The top of the building in the middle of the photograph disappears into a bright light, which also gives a futuristic effect. These effects relate to the style of music as the music is produced electronically. The style of the music is known to be dark and moody and I believe that the style of the cover reflects just this. The music is also of a minimal style, consisting mainly of a drumbeat and a bass line. The cover represents this as it a minimal style, simply consisting of two elements, one image and text.
