CD Advertisement

We were asked to design a CD Magazine advertisement. I created this draft as a foundation to my advertisement. The cover is showing the CD Artwork which is showing the lead singer posing with a microphone. I used this to advertise the duo, I also used exciting words in a font which would grab the readers attention when they are reading the magazine. I then used in a 'LARGE' font 'OUT NOW'- this would be used in order to promote the duets EP and album. I finally released a reasonable price in the corner of the CD cover which would seem ideal.

As this is the foundation of my CD Advertisement, there will be an upgrade and many improvements made using computer technology programs such as; Illustrator and Photoshop.

We created a storyboard showing the storyline of our music video on seperate pages. It is also giving a briefing about how we are going to create the video e.g. what camera movement(panning, tracking), the props we will be using, the location etc. The storyline is of a boy and a girl who have had an argument; the song will be emotional and the type of song we are using will represent that. The story consists of an argument, which then leads to both charcters reconsidering and the video will consist of both characters running back to each other, we will be using tracking camera movement and a variety of camera angles as way to show emotion and passion of the characters. Throughout the video there are cut shots to the band playing the music.

Magazine CD Analysis

Magazines are used to promote Bands on a weekly basis because they're going on tours, creating a new album etc. I chose Kerrang as a magazine to analyse because as a Music based magazine it promotes new bands and experienced bands all the time. I feel that analysing the magazine has taught me how to express a band in way which will seem persuasive enough to read. My analysis is above:
