3. Album title - which is a
connotation as it is the name of
Chris Brown's daughters and
also it may link to how he
views himself
Typography - As it is written in
white this could indicate that his
daughter is pure and the text is
bold as there is no other written
content.
Main image - It is Chris brown
the artist and his daughter
cuddling which could indicate
the route of the songs within
the album and also route of
lifestyle becoming a caring
father.
Framing - He is the
center of the CD cover
and the fact that he
takes up most of the CD
cover shows his
significance,
This cd cover is very different to previous covers as
he may wish to reach a different genre of music now
that he is older and a father. Could suggest more
family appropriate.
This could represent
that the content is
explicit and not suitable
for a young audience.
This could show his view
on gender changing to a
more appropriate view
instead of a sexual way.

4. By using a white
text on a dark
background makes
the text more clear
and appealing.
Within the image this is
a different image which
may mean beyonce is
trying to indicate a
certain part of history.
The fact that she is
not showing her face
may connote the
message of the
album and not trying
to promote herself as
an artist.
A medium close up has
been used and her
figure takes up most of
the CD cover showing
significance.
The fact that the title
is written in capital
letters shows the
significance of the
name.
Very neutral colours are
being used for the CD
cover showing that it is
not trying to sell due to
the appearance of the
cover.

5. Bold colours grab
and hold viewers
attention.
No real images of the
artist only a painting
showing that the album
is not about the artist
and only the music and
This represents that
the content is explicit
which links to the
target audience of
the album.
No typography within
the CD cover which
shows that the album
is being promoted
solely on the album
cover and not the text.
Within the frame
of this CD cover it
is very simplistic
which makes you
focus on the
painting .
The back of the CD
cover is quite explicit
and indicates a sexual
activity.

6. Magazinesadverts

7. This method of advertising would be through magazine
advertisement which is for rihanna’s album called ‘Rated R’
which would be her 4th studio album.The way she is
positioned suggests that the album is secretive. The
typography within the poster is very bold and stands out
which reads ‘Rihanna, The New Album’. This isn't actually
the name of the album which makes it more enticing within
the album advert. The advert itself is a very dark image
which is colourless. Her position of her arms is also a
confusing factor which may question the public on why she
is looking a certain way. Another factor to consider would
be the ‘R’ in the background which either means rihanna or
Rated R which is the name of the album. So the cover itself
it very unclear which could entice the audience and lead
them to find out more about it. This may increase her
demand as fans may be intrigued and wish to buy the
album to find out if the artist has changed direction or even
the audience. The audience would be young females which
are interested in R&B , Pop this is likely to include people
aged 13 - 30

8. For this album the same close up of the artist Jessie
J has been used for not just the CD cover but also
the magazine advert. This then means that it is
recognizable to the fans and public which then allows
them to new album. By having the black bottom it
then means that the writing which is in a white and
gold colour becomes more eye catching and
bold.The fact that she has used dark colours for both
may indicate that the genre of pop rock. To increase
sales on her debut album they have used B.O.B
which is a popular name this would hopefully lead for
them to buy the album which would then lead them to
listen to the rest of the album. The camera angle
plays a key role as well as she is looking straight at
the camera which therefore looking like she is
focussing on her audience and this could therefore
link leading them to make music on them.

9. For the artist Plan B this would be his second album
which is called ‘ The Defamation Of Strickland Banks’.
This magazine advert is likely to of been posted after
he had released the album and this would be due to
the fact that it has a number of different ratings to the
left of the poster.All the rating were 4 star which may
therefore pursued the public to buy the album as
there are high rating. Also the typography within this
advert is very informative saying ‘ The multi-platinum
Album of the year’. This quote stands out dramatically
and the link to the artist showing his achievement.
The colours used were also extremely bright and bold
which makes the consumers concentrate on these
factors. The main image is the artist himself which
overall adheres albums which are Pop/ Hip Hop. This
typically links to album such as Soul/ Jazz artist which
could attract a different genre of audience and also
show how diverse the artist is.
