Conspiricy Theory Rocks






Composition

- Rule of thirds




- Golden Rule



- Rules of Design from Paul Rand the godfather of modern design



- Positive and Negative space




Things to consider:
We are using the format of an Album cover so our viewer is already aware that the image has something to do with music and the music industry.



What we are looking at:
- Color
- Composition (placement of visual elements in 2d space...positive & negative space, rule of thirds)
- Image - subject matter
- Image - style
- Font - literal reading
- Font - style



Each of these elements becomes a "signifier" to the viewer. Which means from these visual elements we will try to make sense of the image. In this case what genre of music might this CD contain?
