the conventions of a music advert

A MUSIC ADVERT

2. NAME OF ARTIST
Of course the name of the artist is going
to be the biggest and boldest text on the
poster. Followed by a picture of the
artist, this promotes their album, and
themselves for the audience.

3. NAME OF ALBUM
Like the artists name, its
equally important to advertise
the albums names which is
usually the 1st or 2nd priority
when choosing font size and
colours. Its important this is
successfully advertised to the
audience.

4. MAIN IMAGE
Its key that the advert and the poster image are
the same as it creates a sense of brand identity
allowing a customer to find it easily. Not only, the
image is something that represents the artist or
their music and is bold and bright to the
audience. The one I’ve used for example is a
great representation of the artist and the album.

5. RECORD LOGO
Not only are the posters advertising the artist
and their album, but also the record company
as without these, producing and selling music
wouldn’t be possible. The logo is usually
placed at the bottom of the poster or in the
corner and very small to the eye,.
