Research- Alike Magazine Adverts.

Like with the digipak we've also started planning our magazine advert. Our aim is to find a simple but attention seeking cover as it should instantly attract our audience.
We've looked up some magazine advert and one that really appealed to us was Michael Jackson's 'HOLD MY HAND' cover. It is very simple. Since my music video is about the couple. We can also have a scene with the two holding hands and this could act as our cover.

Student work - Magazine advert.

This is a magazine advert i found whilst on the internet searching for ideas for my music magazine advert. This seems like a student's work, Personally I am a fan of basic colours that stand out and catches your attention. This was pretty catchy because my main prop of my music video is a guitar. The fact that there is a guitar on the front page attracts me.
It is also attractive as it's not packed with lots of information, just vital informations that the audience must know.

Rihanna Album Release Advert.

Rihanna's new album russian roulette was released in late 2009. Her magazine advert attracted me because the red stood out from the black and white colours. The way the writing is set out is also appealing as in most magazine advert the writing is straight. Though the songs in her albums are usually fun and joyful, this one looks serious. The way she is looking straight into the camera with one hand hiding her eye shows that she probably has a serious message to convey through her album this time. R n B is Rihanna's forte, but if you look at the 'R' on the side it looks slanted and is a font usually used by rock artists for their style of music. This could imply the fact that Rihanna wants her audience to look at her in a more serious way.
