2. MAGAZINE ADVERT
I then added text to this magazine advert in order to highlight the artist, album name, album
information and reviews. All of these features help to sell the product and promote the artist. I
applied these texts using Photoshop as there is a range of fonts which I could use to match
the logo of the band. I added text which highlighted the single ‘17’ which I produced a music
video for as this makes the audience more incline to buy the album if they are aware of one of
the singles. I also added 9 star shapes to create two reviews from well-known music
magazines. This is because it helps sell the product as well-known music magazines are
stating that it is a very good album.

The image used for my magazine advert is the same image which can be seen upon the front
cover of my digipak. This image was taken on Beechwood Park which is my local park. I took
this picture using an iPhone. This picture appeared too light so I decided to add a black and
white filter to the picture. After applying this filter, I felt that the person in this picture was not
very visible so I decided to colour in his blue denim jacket in order to make him stand out to
the consumers. After colouring in the blue jacket I then added different shades of blue to the
jacket so that it appeared more realistic.

At the bottom of the magazine advert, I placed social media links to the band’s Facebook and
Twitter accounts. This is so that the fans can find out more information about the release of
the album. In the middle of these links, I placed the record label logo. This is so that the
record label receives credit for helping produce the album.
