Designing a front cover for artist

My group don't have an artist name yet for our band, but I came up with the name 'DUMMY' and think it's quite cool. I find dummy's in general quite scary and disturbing, and because the track is very dark in itself I think this could be an appropriate name. 

Here I have created a few front cover album designs we could possibly use.

I took this picture a few years ago, but I thought revisiting it was appropriate in this case. I added lots of grain and  used shadow to create a disturbing image. 

Here I added a cold effect to the picture to give the feeling of isolation and loneliness. 

I took this picture from the previous photographer Anna Misoni, but this is the idea I would like to have with a similar style. 

Again another idea for an album cover using Misoni's work.


Other ideas we currently have for CD album covers...


The first shot shows our actress scared with a card in her mouth. The cards resemble the way she is 'gambling' with her life staying with an abusive boyfriend.

The second shot shows a hand showing a card, which is the main focus of the mise en scĂ©ne of the picture. 

THE GAMBLE WITH HER LIFE.
