Republic Records is also a records
company well known around the world
used for all different genre artist but
majority R&B artists were the first to arrive
and become the most popular in the
company.
After this I added in ‘ALBUM
OUT NOW’ this tells the
audience directly that this is
the cover of a music album
rather than anything else
such as a DVD cover or
book. It sends a demand to
the audience as though
telling them that it is ready for
them to buy. I plastered this
in red to stick to the house-
style of the advert and CD
cover and so it stood out bold
against the black, giving the
font danger, adding to the
command of the text.

I then played around with the different aspects and
features of the text and images to see where I liked
the placement and structure best. I found and took
influence from my audience feedback on the drafts
which I drew in my pre-production process. After
jigging it all about I finally found a structure that I was
happy with, and this is the finished result.
As I found out in my research into
existing magazine adverts I added a
rank of 5 stars to the images and
included the well-known music
magazine ‘NME’ to help uplift the
appearance of the album to make
people more interested to buy it. If they
like the music and opinions of the
company ‘NME’ then they would be
more inclined to buy the product if it
had a great recommendation. Adding
these in, I made them white so they
would contrast and stand out on the
black background making them visible
to the audience as well as sticking to
the black, white and red theme.
