magazine Advert

Ancillary tasks - Final magazine cover!

 

This is my final magazine cover for my ancillary tasks i made the cover landscape so it could be shown in a magazine in a double page spread. I have used original images from a photo-shoot i did of my artist i made the background dark by using an editing software (photoshop) i also made the light surrounding her seem as if she is glowing which has successfully made her stand out. I have used a font in which i knew would represent the type of music my artist sings such as the curved and quite messy font i used shows that the music she sings is going to be quite acoustic and folky. I have used very plain looking colours on this advert as i thought that my album didnt have much colours so i should do the same as it would look quite tacky if i used very bright colours in contrast to a plain looking album. Overall i think that my magazine advert has been successful and i think that it portrays the album and my artist well and what the type of genre her music is. It alkso gives the audience a clear indication as to when the album is going to be out and when they are able to buy the album which is very good selling point.
