the assignment (instructions, specifications and criteria):
Your assignment is to create a musical CD cover, or even an album cover (vinyl is back). Before you create artwork for a purpose, such as getting someone (a consumer) to buy something, you need to know something about the consumer. Designers use demographic information for this. Demographics are the statistical data of a population, especially those showing average age, income, education, etc. A specific segment of a population having shared characteristics: For example, the record producers were looking for an album that would appeal to the 15-22 demographic.
