Magazine Advertisement Production

This is my Final Magazine Advertisement

My magazine advertisement features the four protagonists on white backgrounds arranged in a grid format as the main image. This links to the digipak and the music video as the characters appear on a plain white background during the dance section, and walk across the screen with black bars separating them in the walk section. At the top of the advertisement, under the RCA Records logo is the title of the album and the name of the band. This makes it impossible to mistake the advertisement for something else. Below the main image is a box containing reviews for the album so that people can judge whether or not they want to invest in it, and to the right of that is the band's social media information, so that people can follow them if they enjoy the album.

Digipak Production

This is my final digipak

The front cover features an image of Ryan from the 1950s section against the backdrop of a brick wall. The album title has been created using the "Plane Crash" font which appears in the 1890 section of the music video, which when combined with the brick wall, gives the digipak a dark, gritty look, conforming to the rock genre. The 50s section is the brightest section of the music video, so this contrasts the dark black and white wall in the background and emphasises the pop genre. The band name has a much more retro font which also helps to emphasise the pop genre.

The back cover uses the same brick background and features a track list, so that people get an idea of what they can expect before purchasing the digipak, as well as a barcode and copyright information.

The extra panel features an image of the protagonists of the four main time periods in a split screen layout with plain white backgrounds. This links to the "walk" section at the end of our music video, in which all four characters walk from left to right across the screen.

Inside the digipak on the left hand side is the lyrics to the main song, "Cops and Robbers"...

... and on the right is all of the band's social media information so that people can follow them and find out when they release new songs.

Finally, in the middle of the digipak is the disc.

Magazine Advertisement Planning

Magazine advertisements for music videos and albums come in different forms. Some are very simple (only containing information on where to buy the song/album), while others contain lots of info about what can be found on each disc, when the album will be released, and the names of the main songs.

However, most advertisements feature a close-up of the artist as the main image, but some favour a more artistic approach such as these:
