CD cover ideas...

Front:
Fingers together in the shape of a photo, as if you are pretending your hand is a camera. This reinforces the photo imagery that features throughout the video. The words will be in the 'photo' and therefore, the photo is the main feature of the album.
Another idea is to have Chris Cohen's (Ian's) hand held out, so it's just the hand on the side on the front cover. The words will be in his palm showing his control over how his album is.
One final idea, is his hand in a high-five shape, and the words again on his palm, as if he is about to grab them. I think this is a good idea, because it's like him grabbing the guitar or the photo in the video.

Back:
The back cover of the CD is a screen shot from the music video of Ian playing the guitar. I decided to include this because the whole album is made up of acoustic/guitar songs. Also, Chris Cohen's guitar is the main feature in both the song AND the music video. This also links the music video to the CD. The tracks are listed in 'sized' order. This way the words look symmetrical or equal.
