Here is the text we decided to implement within our posters for Tweeda. This text is overall very bold and colourful. We decided to use this for the poster of our album. There is no font on our album cover since we feel that the band would take artistic license and not feature the name of the band in order to appeal more artistic. This font is known as Bauhaus 93 and at the current stage is unlikely to change (since we feel our posters have been finalized). There is still a possibility that this font can change however currently it seems very unlikely. The colour is something we thought about intently. Pink is a colour which is typically associated with girls. Due to alternative rock bands like McFly it seems very appropriate to link to a target audience of girls in someway. This does not mean that our band would purely be devoted to girls since our album cover, video and album poster do not directly link towards girls at all, however we felt that we should try to include some typical conventions of teenage girl interests in order to indicate that we have induced thought to the colour of our text. Moreover this text can simply appeal to boys as well. Since the album cover is very colourful and stylized it makes perfect sense to have text which would follow suit, the fact that it is pink can appear irrelevant to some people when taking into context the fact that the album and album poster include a mass array of different colours.

You might want to consider whether the use of pink is a subversive act, since it has connotations of feminity? Or is it a statement that the band are "above" such cliches? Or perhaps it's just a fashionable colour at the moment...?
