The document analyzes a music poster promoting Rudimental's tour and new album. It discusses several design elements of the poster that effectively promote the album and tour, such as featuring the album cover's urban landscape background. Supporting artists and the record label logo are also included to promote the tour and brand. The typography and style are consistent with Rudimental's other materials to clearly identify their work.
1. This is a poster promoting
their tour, which is a
promotion of their new album.
The image in the poster
is in an urban location,
similar to the location of
their album cover, which
gives it a strong link to
promoting their album.
There is a list of music
companies that have
sponsored the tour, a typical
convention of a music
poster.
It includes all of the main conventions of
a music video; tour dates; support
artists; record label; name of tour
(rudimental live); where you can
purchase tickets; where you can find out
about the band.
They include support
artists that will be touring
with them and who
featured on their tracks
from their album. The
typography for ‘John
Newman’ is a bit
different to the others, it
has a more old
fashioned look,
connoting the artists
contrasting style to the
others.
The poster is in a very
similar style to their
album cover and single
cover, with a landscape
of buildings and a light
blue sky with misty
clouds. Therefore, you
can link all of their work
together.

In the
background there
are many high
buildings (city).
They are
representing their
roots.
In the corner there
is the logo for BB
records, the
company
rudimental are
signed to.This also
promotes the
record label.
On my music poster I will use the main conventions of the poster, including
having the record label on the poster. Also like in the Wretch 32 poster, I
will have outlets where the song can be purchased from and listened to. I
will also include a main image that relates to the album cover, like
rudimental have with the city landscape in the background, which is similar
to the ‘Not Giving In’ single cover.
If you were to see
the top of the
album cover
alone, you would
know it’s
rudimental, the
music group
because on their
album and single
covers they all
have this style of
typography, there
is always a bold
box around
‘Rudimental’, also
it is in full caps
font,like it is their
logo. Also round
on the text there is
dirty and rough
around the edges
connoting the
urban background.
This is the first time
the members appear
on their print
promotions/album
covers, therefore
possibly the first time
you would have seen
what they look like,
as they don’t appear
in their music videos,
therefore the reason
they use distinctive
typography and
similar style print
work, so that you
clearly know who it is.
