Final Submission of Magazine Advertisement


Above is my final magazine advertisement. I have chosen the advert to go in a magazine such as Q magazine or NME, this is because although they are mainly focused on indie/rock they have room for artists such as acoustic, and I do not know of any music magazine specifically focusing on this genre of music. I think this magazine advertisement is catchy and appealing because it has a large image of my artist on, and clearly states the important information for someone looking at the article to take in. The photograph of the artist is important for a new act for an audience to establish the music with a face and to increase the artists popularity, and appeals to those who have not seen the artists face before, but may have heard the name. The name of the artist is large so a name can be linked to the face as well as the music and this helps to increase a fan base too. The image is on a textured dark background with light text to create a contrast of light and dark but also because the text is easily readable like this and too many colours can make an advertisement busy, for this reason I stuck to a black background, white text and coloured image for a variety but also to keep simplicity and keep it easy to read. After the artists name the next piece of information is the album name and when it released, I think this was important because it is the most important part of advertising on the advert, I chose it to go underneath the name because it is instantly the next piece of information you look at. Overall I am pleased with the final magazine advertisement I have produced.
