Magazine cover analysis
1. The bands name is the biggest text that we see on
the advert and draws the audience’s attention to
the name over everything. It catches the readers
attention and alerts any fans of the artists’ that
this advertisement is directed at them.
The magazine advert uses the same mosaic
effect and gives the ad a distinctive look
that entices the reader to look it. The
colours are also very engaging, the colour
purple can be associated with wisdom,
dignity, independence, creativity, mystery
and magic.
The advert is very
conventional of all genre’s,
for example, there is an
engaging image in the
middle of the ad, the name
at the top and details at the
bottom, all split into 1/3,
allowing the audience to
see an organised ad that is
simple, yet intriguing
enough to easily read in a
rush.

and therefore alerts
everyone who she is.
Contact information (brands website)
and the copyright companies logo also
provide advertisement for the
companies, this is very conventional.
3. The ad is very similar to her CD,
which is featured below,
advertising the artist further,
telling the public that this
advert is related to artist. The
ad is very similar to the CD and
upholds the themes that the
audience has previously seen,
the same colour scheme is used
and as is the font.
Her face takes up most of
the plain image, and so we
are drawn to looking at her
face and the CD ad below.
This is rather conventional of
an ad as we’re forced to look
at her and the little details
that are given.
The information given makes the artist look
as good as possible, as does the photo, this is
typical because the artist needs to look as
good as possible so the advert can be as
pleasing to the eye as possible.
4. The image and font relate to the
name of the album and looks
visually pleasing as it will engage
the audience as they flick
through the pages of a magazine
as the bright ‘lights’ capture the
attention of the reader.
The ad is split into 1/3, this is very
conventional, no matter where each
component is. The image takes up 1/3,
the artist’s name and album name takes
up 1/3 and details about the album takes
up another 1/3.
It’s the same image as on
theCD, it provides a visual link
for the audience that lets
them know that this is the
artist that has certain songs.
5. The artist uses a font that is
recognizable as she uses it for all her
albums and advertising, it is the
bands signature font and keeps
consistency within their advertising,
allowing them to be recognizable.
This advertisement seems unconventional
as the 1/3 rule doesn’t really apply, her
image takes up most of the ad and only
leaves a small amount of space for the band
name. This image is very powerful however,
and you notice the peculiar image of the
organs outside the body first, then the title
‘LUNGS’, which apply to the image, and
then the band name. This particular ad is
very successful in its methods of capturing
the audiences attention.
The rest of the ad is conventional
in the way that it advertises
specific details about the album,
like what types of mediums it can
be bought from.
