Album Advert - Final Version
The final version of my advert uses the inside centre image from my final digipak, which features a young man (the stand-in for my artist) sitting in a party setting, following the convention of using the artist's face on the advert and enabling the audience to know/identify who my artist is. His name (Marcus) is placed in capitals and a larger font than the rest of the text in order to highlight his importance and place his prominence above that of the album title and singles; these are placed on the left and right of his head, respectively, in a similar way to how my first advert draft was laid out.
On the left of the advert, I have written the album title (Visions of Love) in capitals to highlight its importance in relation to the artist and I have placed it on two separate lines, rather than one so that it would not get in the way of the artist's face and make the advert messy and disorganised. The same has been done for the included singles ('What If' and 'Remember Me'), which follows the convention of putting what will be included on the album in capitals so that they stand out and catch the eye of the audience.
The bottom left corner of the advert features the Spotify and iTunes stickers that inform the audience of where they can purchase or stream the album - I have included this as it is a feature found on several modern album adverts and my demographic, which is made up of young people, often uses digital downloads and streaming services as ways of listening to music. By including these availability stickers on the advert, I am providing other ways in which the album can be purchased or listened to, besides the CD.
