Music videos were originally used to promote artists and help audiences connect with them on a visual level beyond just the music. Early examples included films starring artists like Elvis Presley and The Beatles. In the 1960s, the first true music videos emerged to promote songs on television since audiences could now watch artists at home. The 1970s saw the rise of more sophisticated music videos like Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" which helped boost singles up the charts and set conventions for the rock genre. In 1981, MTV launched and caused an explosion of music videos which became primarily visually driven and helped artists greatly in promotion.New front cover

Music videos originated in the late 1920s as musical short films produced by companies like Vitaphone to accompany songs. The first recognized music video was Bessie Smith's appearance in the 1929 film "St. Louis Blues". In the late 1950s and 1960s, artists like the Beatles began using short films to promote their songs and brand themselves, often featuring lip syncing performances. The 1970s saw the rise of conceptual music videos and higher production values, influenced by artists such as David Bowie and Queen. MTV's launch in 1981 established a 24-hour outlet for music videos and further propelled the genre's popularity. Today, platforms like YouTube have increased accessibility of music videos and given emerging artists a global platform.digipack

The album cover uses a greyscale color scheme with black and white contrast to represent the band's dark musical themes. The prominent black suggests their music covers topics like lost love and childhood upset. The lit-up band name draws attention as their debut, suggesting they are breaking through the music scene.
The band's name is centered on the cover to make the album recognizable. They also cleverly named the album after themselves to make it easier for audiences to identify.
By not including pictures of themselves, the cover represents the band's message that audiences should judge them based on their music rather than their image. This simplicity also introduces audiences to the style of their hidden and interpretive lyrics.Digipak analysis

What makes these cd covers successful
- 1. What makes these CD covers successful? By Holly Phillips
- 2. The Beatles Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band This Beatles CD cover was successful because of its creativeness and how unique it was. The use of bright bold colours on the Beatles in the middle of the front cover makes them stand out from everyone else, which shows that they are the main people on the cover. It also shows its their album. The use of bright colours also catches peoples attention. I think this album was also very successful because it has lots of different celebrities from around that time on the background surrounding the Beatles. This made the CD cover different and original because no other covers were like this.
- 3. Green Day 21st Century Breakdown The Green Day CD cover was successful because of its modern and creative style. They have made this CD cover modern by using graffiti style writing and a picture that looks like its graffiti on a wall. This gives it a modern feeling because graffiti is associated with the modern day and is seen every where. This CD cover was probably most successful with the teenage audience, the picture of a couple kissing and the use of graffiti suggests this because this is what teenagers are stereotypically like in the modern day getting girlfriends/boyfriends and doing or into graffiti. The CD is called 21st century breakdown which the name will appeal to the younger audience as well.
- 4. Coldplay Viva LaVida This CD cover was successful because of its striking background and originality. The background is different from over CD covers because its a painting of he French in battle. I like they way the album is called `Viva LaVida` and so is the painting this links the painting to the CD. The title of the CD looks like it has been painted on the cover which also links to the painting in the background as they both use paint. I think its good how the paint has been splattered across the picture which links to the idea of the blood being splattered in the battle from people dying. The name Viva LaVida means `Long live life` which is what the CD is about.
