Album magazine advertisement - Zak Swindell



With this first magazine advertisement for the cover of Eminem's new album "Recovery" straight away we can see that there is a lot of space in this image, a reason for this could be because looking back at the name of the album cover we can link these two together and say that with the artist on the advert we can say that this recovery could be linking in with Eminem meaning that more emotion and thought has gone into this advert to really show to people what this album is about. Key things such as the colour theme and also the costume of the artist it could be suggested that in this specific album their will be much more emotion and also more darker subjects and situations which could be discussed in his songs.Other information is placed on this advertisement such as the release date for the album, this allows the fans of Eminem to know when the album is released so they can go out and buy it. Other information such as the single of "not afraid" this gives the fans more information about the album which could mean that if they like that song then there could be others which they might like so this could mean more albums sold.
 


This magazine advertisement for Lana del reys album called "Born to die" With this advertisement we can see that the colour theme is bright and colourful linking in to the type of music which this artist provides. Some conventions which are followed in this advertisement are that the artist's name is on the advert, also the name of the album is on the advert "Born to die" also an image of the artist is at the centre of the advert. Extra information is placed on this advert such as the date of the albums release which allows the artists fans to know when they can buy the album. If we look at the artist we can see that with the shirt she is wearing and the make up we can see that she looks formal which isn't linking towards her music, a reason why she could be shown in this way is because of the album name "Born to die" is more serious and has much more meaning to it.



 
With this magazine of Tinie Tempah the magazine advert has an eye-catching layout and colour scheme. The background of the advertisement relates to space and has quite an futuristic theme. This has been done because the title of the album is Discovery and so it suggests something different and new in his album. With the advertisement the way the artist has merged his face in with the Milky Way, it allows the artist to stand out and it allows the reader of the magazine to instantly recognizes him and may want to buy his new album. The design links in with Tinie Tempah’s signature logo of his name as well as his number one single Written in the Stars this allows people who are reading to recognise and show of the fact that the album has number one singles on it encouraging people to buy it and listen. The date that the album is set to be due for is also on the advert in bold and bright numbers. This allows the readers and also his fans know when it is available to buy.
