magazine advertisement:

these are my first two attempts at creating a good advertisement to place in a magazine to promote the single and artist. i used the cartoonised images similar to that on the digipak to create a on-going theme linked to the artist. the use of red's is also a linking theme throughout as it connotes passion an element involved within the single.

i discarded using these two images as initially, they didn't contain a date of release, information on where to purchase it from, a price or a rating from a popular music magazine. these things are all crucial too and stereotypical of magazine advertisements, i felt that without the use of these devices my product would appear unprofessional and unsuccessful and in the second image the colour used when i applied the rating i felt was too dark.
