magazine advert analysis

1. Digipak Magazine Advert’s
Here are a few examples of some adverts for Digipaks in magazines like Keerang. The
reason I have chosen magazines like Keerang is because it best matches the audience I will
be aiming my Digipak and counterpart magazine advert at.

2. This is the magazine advert for
Green Day’s single ‘Wake Me Up
When September Ends’.

5. A common feature of the magazine adverts that I have found is that they all show the
release date of the digipak as they obviously want to advertise it. They also all show what
the cover of the digipak will look like so that the audience knows what to look for when
searching for the digipak. All their fonts are consistent to the bands logo’s so that they are
recognisable.
I shall use this research in order to assist my magazine advert. I like the way the green day
advert showed the artist and I’d like to use that in mine. I will also use a consistent font
across my music video, digipak and magazine advert. For advertising purposes, I shall
show the date of the release of the digipak just like the examples I have analysed here.
