The colours i choose to go for within the Magazine advert were bright blues, reds, oranges, yellows, pinks and greens. The reason for this is because Charli XCX's target audience is aimed at young teens. I believe the use of these vibrant colours on a poster would best draw their attention. I know from personal experience that magazine ads that stand out the most are acknowledged more than those will bland colouring. Furthermore, the use of tropical colours matches Charli XCX outfit. The red on her heels matches the colour of the 'red balloons' which is a name of one of her songs appearing on her album Sucker. The fonts i chose to use were bold especially the album title Sucker. Making each letter a different colours and each one of them had a set colour of lights. Furthermore, the use of each balloon flying up forwards Charli XCX name with the name of each song shows that they all come from her album. I decided it was important to include a song on the album where she ...

Within this i have gone into detail on the fonts, imagery colours and the impact this magazine advert has on Rhiannas audience. I have decided that the LOUD really stands out and draws attention to the type of upbeat pop music that will be appearing on this album. Furthermore, the use of the large background of Rhianna shows she is well recognised and therefore, her name doesn't need to be as large. This will help when making my own product because i now know what will get the album really recognised and the colour and choice of imagery are essential in making the magazine advert stand out.

Our initial idea was too look for an artist with a song that hadn't been released as a single in the pop genre but was instead released within an album. This song was not well established within the charts and recognised as popular. Therefore, whilst looking at lyrics we came across the song and believe this would best fit our idea of a party theme with the genre we had picked. The start of the music video is a girl arriving at a party with her friend and her boyfriend. We then follow her into the party and as she approaches we hear the music getting louder. Once inside she begins dancing with her friend and her boyfriend when his friend comes over and begins dancing with them too. When the party ends they leave together. Within this music video we had an initial idea of using coloured flares and balloons with glitter in so when they are popped the sparkles come out. Which relates to the lyrics within the video of "purple glitter flying through the air oh" this is when ...

Emelie Sande- Heaven Represented- who is represented? How is the artist represented/promoted? Is the fan base represented?  Within this music video it is clear Emelie Sande is not recognised as a celebrity. This is because she wants to be seen as equal to everyone else in the street. This is presented to us through the way in which she is wearing clothes bought from stores such as Topshop, H&M instead of wearing designer outfits and lots of jewellery showing her wealth. I believe this is effective with her music video of Heaven as when you go to heaven wealth and class isn’t relevant.   Within this music video it is evident that poverty is a key factor that is being highlighted within this music video. This is important for her video because she wants to make sure that everyone is included within the video. I believe that this is because Emelie wanted to be shown as an artist that she realises not everyone is as fortunate as her and everyone is still connected th...

    You need to consider the layout of the digipak as you want the album title to stand out to potential consumers or people are looking for the product. This is why i decided to make my title nice and bold to catch attention. You also need to consider the way in which the digipak is going to fold as you don't want it to be upside down once completed. The ideas within your digipak needs to be original and draw people into your album. You do this by making sure your digipak has a unique selling point that hasn't be done before. You need to make sure the artists name is on the spine of the pak and that the name of the artist is big and bold for people to see as often people may just purchase an album if they enjoy the artist without knowing all of the songs. Within my own digipak one of the things that worked was the use of the two lollipops in the shape of a cross i did this because you suck lollipops and this links to the album title sucker alongside the idea that sucker is a...

Within our pairs we had to create a magazine advert for an imagined band. We spent several lessons on this where we were put into pairs with the task of creating our own advert. I was partnered with Ben we had to think about several aspects for instance how we were going to photo shop the image in, what image we were going to use to match the name given to us. Most importantly the image behind the photo presenting the location because we needed the entire genre to all match to make the advert as realistic as possible to the artists we were given. Our genre was a mixed pop band. We decided to use an image of the group in the centre of the screen as then they were dominating the advert. We listed where the songs were going to be available to listen to and download. We also decided to include the title of the album to be called Candyfloss featuring bubblegum. To interlink both the colours and the attire of the band and title we decided on using bright bold fonts for the name of the band...

Font The font is in bright purple and white, bold and in capital making it stand out on on the dark background giving a space theme to the product. Furthermore, there is huge spaces in between each word drawing more attention to her name and songs. Colour The choice of colours and sparkles give the idea of the stars and galaxies in the background. Charli XCX is seen as an electric artist that really stands out and is powerful through the use of glaring multi-coloured lights flying through the ends of her hair and on the other side of the digipak. Alongside this, she has for filled her electro-pop identity through the use of the bright vibrant colours running through her wild hair. Imagery  The use of imagery of Charli XCX being pictured in the centre of the frame shows she is the most important aspect of her digipak. The only other colours are the glistening silvers spread across the black and purple background with a spacey feel and at the top an array of red, blue and...
