Planning For Print Task - CD Cover (Inspirational Texts #1)

As part of our project, we are going to need to design a promotional package for the music video, which will consist of a magazine advertisement for the band, and also a CD cover for the band's upcoming CD. This post is largely about the inspirational ideas for the second of these tasks, as my CD cover for the band will focus on the four band members, but I want to present them in a unique way which expresses the band's attitudes. This first text is for the Red Hot Chili Peppers' 'Blood Sugar Magik' album, which shows the four band members all looking into the center of the album, and I believe this will express the emotion of the band, if we show each of them expressing a different emotion, but I think the overall design of this album may be a little too complex, so I like the idea of doing a toned down version of this cover.
