2. The font looks elegant. This font is used on his album, and used persistently throughout
the website.
Links at the top to catch up with what the

3. Maverick Sabre’s Website
The front of his album
cover is him, the image put
on the front of the album, is
enlarged on the website.
Below that is his album but
a smaller version.
The colour scheme throughout the website is
black and white. This matches one of the
conventions of soul. The videos for his new An option to buy some of

4. This was his first released album. Maverick sabre
This was the song that
was still unknown at this point but had collaborated
made him famous and
with well known artists. As he is not on the front
soon after he became

that much. The location
looks urban and is
outside, keeping it
consistent with many of
his music videos.
When starring in videos the artist is
walking around urban areas. This is
replicated in his album work. Even
though his work is high budget, and the
record company he is owned by is well
known, he is sticking to these concrete
locations.
This one is actually in colour but the camera angle is straight on. It looks as if
he is made to sit there and look casual.. The same font has been used which
shows he’s beginning to repeat his design to show everyone his genre.
5. This is his current album, and the only one to be released. Its him on
the front cover and a close-up is used which suggests this album and the
songs included are more personal to him. Again the colours used are
black/white which fit the ‘soul conventions’ and are the same design as
his previous albums. The same font has been used throughout which
makes him appear more serious/successful.
Maverick’s type of music can appeal to any type of person however
after looking up his statistics we found out that its mostly teenagers
more interested. However with this theme it doesn’t seem like it would
appeal to that target age. If anything it looks as if the whole idea of
black/white etc is based more on his genre of music.
