Codes and convention for adverts.
• Adverts appear to have a set colour scheme too them. They normally have 2 or 3 main colours
which dominate the advert.
• They normally have a studio shot photo of the thing they are advertising.
• They also seems to have quite a lot of space on the page there is not too many things on the page.
They are neatly set out.
• The biggest writing on the page is normally what the product is called. For example if there
advertising a phone the name of the phone is be dominant on the page.
• They also have email addresses and social networking sites on the page.
• They normally have 1 main picture on the advert and that is it. (Sometime two if they take a
picture of the same thing at a different angle)
From looking at the magazine adverts I
wish to carry forward...
• A colour scheme with 2 or 3 main colours.
• A studio shot photo of the product I am advertising as this makes it look the best it can be. It also
makes the product look professional.
• I will have a neat layout on the page without too much text or other things making the page look
full. I will do this because it makes it clear what you are advertising because only the important
things are on the page.
• I will have email address, and social media links near the bottom of my page as this makes it easy
for people to look into the product more.
• The biggest font on the page will be the name of the product so it is clear what it being
advertised.
