The document discusses the codes and conventions that must be followed when creating a print advertisement. It notes that an ad should use a single background image related to the content, be in landscape orientation, contain no more than two lines of text with the time, channel and title, have a solid block color, and feature the logo of the channel where the content will air. The document analyzes a professional ad and the author's own ad to show how it follows all of these conventions expected of print advertisements.
4. When creating the print advert we analysed ones in class and to make
sure we followed the codes and conventions of a print ad. Here I
have compared a professional print ad and my print ad to show
that I haven’t challenged the conventions.
1. The image fills the whole background and only one image is used,
it also links in with the documentary.
2. It must be landscape.
3. At the most there are two lines of text on the print advert and
these have to include the time, channel and title.
4. The have a block colour to make them stand out.
5. The channels logo in which the documentary will be played is
visible on the print advert.
Therefore all these codes and conventions in which I was suppose to
followed I have all these and visible in the print advert and match
real media products.
