Album Magazine Advert

The magazine advert needs to promote the artist's music and create excitement for the target audience. It must showcase the release date for the album because then the public know how long they have to wait until they can rush down to the nearest store to buy a copy. It also needs to display quotes from album reviews and album ratings, like ' **** - A Phenomenal Piece of Work' for example! Most importantly it should highlight the artist's name and the album title, so the public know what they are looking out for. To make the advert stand out in a magazine it needs to have an eye-catching picture, typically a picture of the artist. We need to decide whether we are going to have a photoshoot for the magazine advert or use one which we've used for the album cover. Most commonly magazine adverts show the picture found on the album cover and this is what we're most likely to do.
