Magazine Advert Research

     I wanted to base my magazine advert heavily on the work I had produced from the music video and considering this I took factors within my music video so I could create a more beneficial research plan. The music video I produced includes a band performance and narrative - that's one factor to it. However the more important factor I believe in this case is that I wanted to base the video on shots seen in music videos and films too to get a mixed artistic side to the video overall. Therefore for this research I am going to look at both music magazine adverts and Film magazines to produce something with similar incorporated elements to the video. Though I will include cinematic magazine elements the magazine advert will mostly comprised of conventions from other magazine adverts to make the message clear for the audience.

So hear is my analysis of some of those adverts:






Conventions of a Music Album Magazine Advert
  • Two styles: Font-based (Gig Style) and Picture and Font, conventional advert style
  • Band and Album name
  • Record Company Logo
  • Link to extra information e.g. Website HTML
  • When the album is out
  • One Colour Palette to stick to
  • Less than three fonts

Other possible aspects
  • Reviews and Ratings
  • QR Code
