Mumford And Sons - Sigh No More
Location/Effects
The location of the album is quite simple, set in a town with the image of different coloured buildings which look quite like town shops. The lighting contrast is dim which gives a vintage, alternative look so just by the cover we can guess what the genre may be. There are four men stood in the building window which we suggest are the band members. However, at first glance it seems asif they are just mannequins as the building is the dominant image. The writing is presented as a swirly but simple font which goes with the image and the genre of the band. Usually the band are the main focus on the album cover which they are however they are mainly in the dark shades of the album and the light areas are around them. Costume/Props
The band are dressed in outfits which shows their Britishness. It also gives them a folk/indie look which establishes their genre. We realise that it is the band we are seeing as they are stood against their instruments in the window. Back of Digipak
The back of the digipak for Mumford and Sons is quite simple. They use a simple medium shot of the window and the white wall which makes the text stand out. It's asif we are looking at the back of the building we have just seen on the front of the album. They have used a white colour which makes the window and the song list the main attraction. It is set out to look realisitc.
