Justin Timberlake is written in white and capital letters which shows purity and innocence and the album name is also in capital letters and in blue. It is bigger than his name so his album can get recognition. His album name is written in blue which connate coolness and calm. This shows he is a chilled character we can also tell from his facial expression

Justin Timberlake is position away from the audience but still looking at the audience. This reflects Richard Dyer theory of being present but be absent.

He is wearing a leather jacket which shows his lifestyle. The leather jacket also suggests a biker boy look however his face expression looks innocent.

This is set in a deserted location where the sun is rising. They are darker clouds closer the artist and gets lighter. The location suggests he is lost or deserted as the background the CD cover is set at a location.

The artist Justin Timberlake has no visible make up and his hair is blonde and short

The artist name is located in the middle of the CD cover with the name of the album located behind it. The artist name is more visible so the artist can get recognition.

The artist name and album title is written in bold and written in the colour white. This connotes that the artist is pure and innocent.

The artist wearing black shirts and black shades suggests that the artist as power and authority as black connotes this.

The body position of the artist is facing towards the audience but he face is positioned away. This reflects Richard Dyers theory of being present and be absent.

The artist is wearing sunglasses shows his lifestyle. He is also wearing jeans and an open shirt. This shows voyeurism because the artist is a displaying a sense of sexuality.

Reevel Sangi Mayi - CD cover anaylsis of Outkast








From their costume and props it signifies what their album is set in. It is set in the 1950/ 1960. I know from their costume and the microphone

Big boi has high key lighting and top lighting which shows he is glamorous. He is also looking at the audience so he can be present. Apart from the spotlight the background is dark because they are on a stage.

The location of this album cover is set on a stage and the pictures of each artist are taken from each other’s point of view

The parental advisory explicit content logo shows that this album contains uncensored.

From this album cover I can tell they’re different artist ,different personality and have different lifestyles because Andre 3000 is looking at his piano and sheet music which shows he is concentrating and is serious about his music however big boi is looking at the audience which shows he is the main attraction and enjoys the spot light.

The Outkast logo signifies them as a group and differentiates them from other artist by having a specific logo.
