This summary provides an overview of an advertisement for the Fall Out Boy album "From Under the Cork Tree": The advertisement contains the album name and cover art at the bottom, along with a few hit songs to familiarize potential buyers with the band. The center features a large image of the band members. At the top is the band's name in the same font used on the album. The dark colors of black and brown match the album cover and allow the band image to stand out clearly. Overall the layout effectively includes all necessary information to promote the rock album to both existing and new fans.

1. This digipak advert is for the album from under the cork tree by the band fall out
boy. This digipak is quite a conventional advert and looks similar to most
adverts that I have looked at. The layout of the advert is conventional in the way
that it contains everything that I found in an advert. At the bottom you have got
the name of the album and the picture of the album cover. Under the name of the
album you have got a few of the hits from the album in which they have released
and this is because people may know the name of the song but not the band. In
the centre of the advert you have got the picture of the band and this takes up
the majority of the advert. The image shows each member of the band with
Patrick Stump and Pete Wentz being at the front of the image and those two
people are the most popular members of the band. At the top of the advert you
have got the name of the band and this is written in the same font that was used
in the album that this advert is advertising from under the cork tree. This is a
clever touch as people will start to familiarize themselves with this font and
when they see it they will know who it is.
The colours used in this advert are blacks and browns and this is a common
colour which is also used on the album cover as well. The picture seems to slot
into the advert nicely and this poster is quite easy on the eye. Overall the layout
is quite spacious and it contains all of the information which was required for
you to know.
The target audience for this album would probably be people who are fans of the
band who would have bought their previous album take this to your grave. As
this was only their second album they would also be trying to get new fans. The
new fans in which they would try to be appealing to would be fans of rock. The
main image in the centre of the advert would be the picture of the band. This has
probably been edited so that the colours compliment the browns and blacks
used in the font and lettering. It has all been put together nicely so that nothing
has been cut out but at the same time creating a nice layout.
In my opinion I think that the genre is quite apparent and that you can get a
rough idea of what you are buying from this advert. The fact that members of
this band have got long hair is quite stereotypical of most rock bands. You see
the tattoos on Pete Wentz’s arm which again is also quite stereotypical of the
band. If you were not sure after that they have put two of the songs in which
they have released under the name of the album, so if you wanted to get a rough

2. idea of what their music is like you could go on a site like YouTube and listen to it
there.
In my opinion I think that this is a successful poster. There are several aspects
that help it be successful such as it is quite eye catching. Although the colour
used is dark and subtle, this makes the image in the middle stand out a lot more.
It gives you all of the information which is needed in an advert without the
viewer having to read a lot or without the viewer finding it difficult to find
because the font is too small or the advert is overcrowded with information or
images.
