Organic and Synthetic Artists

Organic Artist - Lana Del Rey
  • The title of the album is 'Born To Die' which is smaller than the artists name at the top of the album cover. This signifies how the title of the album is insignificant compared to her name, which shows how she is trying to sell her name as it is her debut album. 
  • Pastel colours are used which signifies how innocent the artist is which highlights the style of music that she produces.
  • The font of the title is plain and bold, which highlights how she is trying to sell her name rather than her image. 
  • The lighting of the album is pure and retro which shows how she is trying to differentiate herself from other organic artists to make her stand out. 
  • Lana's clothing represents her innocence and modesty as she has her blouse buttoned up to the top so that she doesn't reveal any flesh. 
  • The high angle shot connotes an eery and mysterious feel to signify how she has power and control over her music which is what makes her original. 
  • The serious facial expression along side her clothing demonstrates that she considers herself to be a more serious musician than Little Mix. 
  • Overall we can see that there are elements in this CD cover which demonstrate the organic nature of the artist. 

Synthetic Artist - Little Mix
  • The colours which are used are bright and vibrant which connotes the happy, upbeat genre of music that the band produce. 
  • Their facial expressions are over the top and very expressive, which shows how their album is fun and exciting rather than dull and serious. The fact that they all have different facial expressions shows their individually and how they want their personalities to come across to their fans to make them more relatable. 
  • The font used on the cover of the album is messy and rough which symbolises how their image is quite edgy and individual. Furthermore, the artists stand out more than the font used which shows how they are selling their popstar image rather than their name. 
  • The lighting used on the cover is bright and colourful which shows how they have a fun and exciting feel about them. 
  • Their clothing is very floral and feminine which highlights their girly image which they portray to their fans.
  • The fact that all 4 of the girls are equally visible in the image indicates how none of them are more superior than the others, showing equality in the band.
  • Overall we can see that there are elements in this CD cover which demonstrate the synthetic nature of the band.
