5 Rules for taking a good cover photograph.

There are 5 rules you should follow whilst taking a picture for your front cover:

  1. No cluttered Backgrounds.
  2. Make sure you focus on the lead singer if it is a band.
    If it is a solo artist make sure it is a medium shot - close up.
  3. Leave room for a masthead. (~Don't cut off heads!~)
  4. No high angle shots, makes bad images as it connotes weakness and inferiority.
  5. Animate your band, make sure they look at the camera.
