2. Conventional font for the rock band, the
ligtning - symbol of the band, very
recognisable. The name of the band
appears in the middle of the advert.
Red, black, grey and white colours
creating the atmosphere, show what
genre it is.
Quite a lot of information appearing
on the advert - name of the band,
album, release date, formats, tracks
included (popular)
A man with guitar in a circle -
connotes rock genre
Symmetrical background
3. The cover of the CD is the
same image as the advert so
it is easy for people to spot it
in the shop, for example, as
it says on the advert, it can
be purchased in HMV.
4. Dark and very high contrast - rock
genre.
Symbolic recognisable font, is used as
a symbol of the band
Faces of the band - not too clear - they
are recognisable characters.Graffiti
style refers to the rebellious nature of
the band.
A lot of information on the concert!
When, where, how the tickets could
be bought.
Bright yellow, white and red colours on
the black background - punky feeling
about the poster.
A very small reference to the album
- a small writing at the bottom of the
page stating that a new album "21
century breakdown" is out and a
tiny picture of the cover of the
album.
5. This is a cover of the album
which was presented during
the tour which advert I have
just analysed. They have an
obvious reference to each
other, so people will know
which album is being
presented because it doesn`t
really state it on the poster. It
does, but in small letters
somewhere on the bottom of
it. The main difference
between them - on the advert
the members of the band are
shown, but on the CD cover
it is a girl and a guy kissing.
Once again, colours are
bright and conventional -
black, orange, yellow, white.
The cover is artistic and is
presented in sort of graffiti
style. Especially the font.
6. Radios - refer to music, just making the
audience understand this is a music CD
advert
A person literally stepping back - name
of the album is "hits back"- direct
illustration. The way this person looks
connotes the genre - the leather black
shoes, black jeans and blazer
Once again, conventional colours - black,
white, and red.
A lot of information - on release date,
iconic tracks, formats, websites, where it
will be available from and the record
company
7. Quite a dark image, soft shadows and
colours, very interesting picture in this
terms.
The picture refers to the album name -
"Intimacy"
Not so much information this time - only
the release date, well known tracks and a
website
Unconventional - we wouldn`t see
adverts in this style often.
Conventional in a way text is placed
on the poster - the band and album
name in the centre, other information
on the bottom.
8. This is a CD cover (advert previous
slide). As we can see it is the same
as an advert so people could make
visual references between them.
9. Childhood picture - contrasts with the
theme of the CD - the last recordings
Big name CASh in the usual font - iconic
recognisable pact of his image.
Black background - death + "man in
black"
One of the songs name - "Aint to grave"
- refers back to the name of the album
as well - the last recordings and is one
of the most well known songs.
No new picture of him needed - a
recognisable character.
Very powerful words choice - "The last
recordings", "American 4: Aint no
grave".
