CD Cover Research-Green Day 21st Century Breakdown

The big white capital writing stands out from the dark colours and background from behind the text. This is good because the audience will get drawn to the text and look for the band name. While advertising the band name, the audience can search them up and buy their merchandise, which will increase their popularity and their sales to make more money and profit.

On the cover it shows a title called the “21^st Century Breakdown”, this states that the producers think that this album is the breakdown to what is happening in the world today. The colour of this title once again ties in with the colour in the background, to show the importance that the message that is given out.

On this CD cover we see the different effect with the colour, as red is associated with blood, death, love etc. However orange is associated as seen vibrant and energetic. It also shows the audience the importance of the two characters standing in the middle, being protected from the sun.

We see the boy and the girl cuddling and showing their affection to one another. This is what our song is related to. We have tried to use the same effect in order to appeal to our audience and feel engaged to our music video, to appeal to the couples.
