I chose this photo as the back image because I needed a photo that had a lot of space to put text - song playlist, copyright information, however I also wanted the artist to still be featured. I felt that this image was perfect to use as it met both my needs - there is plenty of space to the left of the artist in which text can be placed. When looking through all my photos from the shoot I found that there where a number of images that where similar to this one however an aspect of this particular photo that I really liked was that the artist is looking to the left which is where the text will be and I liked the idea that she is looking at the text, i.e the playlist of songs.
Step 2 - editing
I had used the photo filter tool to alter the colours in the album cover and so I needed to use the same affect on the back cover so that the two complimented each other. The image below shows again the stages I took throughout the editing process.

Step 3 - text
In my research I found that it was popular for the same text font to be used throughout the album. I therefore used the font 'noir-et-blanc' (the same as the album title) for the playlist of songs on the back cover, I used the same effect - outer glow, to make the text stand out from the background. I wanted the layout to look ordered and sophistacated so I centralised each song and ordered them by word length.
