2. The age group which
took this survey was
between 16 and 20
which is my
demographic which
allows me to take
from the answers a
key representation of
what my
demographic/
audience look for in
albums
3. The gender was
majority female
however the survey
gives me a answer
within range of
what both genders
like in terms of the
ancillary texts
4. When looking at a
promotional poster
something which is
surprising is how
significant the image is
to the audience, only 2
of the answers
suggested the colour
and font and the
release date
information is not
deemed as important
5. The majority of
answers preferred
the second album
of Lana Del Rey
rather than the
abstract cover by
London Grammar
this is something
to note when
creating my own
work
6. Only three people liked
the London Grammar
album cover and the
reason behind this
seems to be the image
makes the album sell
better as it shoes the
artist and the image
itself appeals as you
don’t have to read the
name of the artists
7. The answer from this
question gave me an
idea that promotional
posters are still evident
even during the influx of
the internet
8. I feel from the answers
it is a mix response but
you still see
promotional posters on
the streets but you
also see them much
more on social media
account and on TV/
radio
9. Conclusion:
Consequently from these seven brief questions it
is clear to see that audiences prefer albums with
an image of the artist rather than an abstract
image as it allows the audience to know the
artist without reading the name on the album.
Also people prefer photos on the promotional
posters as that is what they look for, therefore I
need to make sure I conform to audiences
expectations to ensure my product is successful.
