The photo used for the magazine advertisement shows the back of the artist from a mid-shot angle, as envisioned by the creator throughout planning and recording. Minor edits were made to remove unnecessary elements from the photo. A black and white effect was applied, matching the effective style of the DVD cover and linking the two pieces. The same font from the DVD cover was used for consistency. Experimentation led to selecting orange text that provided the most professional look. Elements from the DVD cover like its front were incorporated while maintaining separation and a creative style. Additional details finished the advertisement.

2. The photo we chose to use for the magazine advert is a mid shot showing the back of the artist.
Throughout recording and planning I always had this layout in my head so I had the photographer to
take this specific angled photo. I first started editing the photo by again removing any unnecessary bits
and pieces such as the spots.

3. At first I wasn't too sure about applying the black & white effect on the photo, but after completing the
DVD cover and seeing how effective it is and how it merges well I decide to apply it to this photo. This also
shows a link between the DVD cover and the magazine advertisement. As again, this photo did not require
any work as myself and team believe that it already has the professional appearance.

4. I also decided to use the same font as the DVD cover as it again shows a link between the two. I then
placed the photo and text in layout that is shown in my planning. I did experiment with the colour of the
‘no regrets’ but orange seemed to be the most effective and provided a more professional look.

5. I then added the front cover off the DVD cover but decided to cut off the lower half as it gives it more
room. I also had to but an orange border around the DVD cover as the both backgrounds merged
together as they are the same colour so I thought it would help separate them but it also gives of a
creative look.

6. After adding a few little extras such as the page number, magazine logo and ratings & quotes from famous
music industries, it finally looks complete. By looking at the photo above I believe that the use of orange on
certain pieces of the advertisement helps it stand out and gives a vibrant effect.
