48. Ancillary text 1 - Album Cover

As you can see , above is Wretch 32 album cover for his 'Black & White' album. The central image of his album cover is a side mid shot which clearly already , the audience know who the artist in the album is , furthermore , there are also no other images apart from an image of him which further allows the audience to identify the main artist. In his album , the text is black and white with the artists name in block capitals 'WRETCH 32' . The image and text ratio is around 8:2 as the first thing we see is an image of the artist.

As you can see above in the artists webpage , the theme of black and white is also running through here as the text is also white and the background is black. Further more the 'WRETCH 32' is the same text font and cover as the album cover. In addition , most images here are close ups and mid shots which are similar to his album cover.

Again , we see here that the theme of black and white is still running in the video. This is a mid-shot , like we see in his album cover.

Similarly , this is our artist. As you can see our cover is fairly similar with the synergetic theme of black and white and a mid-shot of the artist. As both artist covers are associated with the colour black , this is because they share the same genre of grime/rap which is mostly associated with the colour black.
