Magazine advert

Now it was time to create the magazine advert we had a clear idea of what we wanted and how were were going to go about it as everything should tie up it inspiration from Mariah Carey's Emancipation of Mimi Advert.

The theme of this is Black and gold which gives a mature sophisticated look, which is what we aim in our own magazine advert. We choose this image (see below) because we it that that tension atmosphere that we wanted. also we could play around with the colours to have the chosen theme of the autumn look.

We added a black frame around it and used the same font in the digipak so it shows a continuation of the theme we added added award stars from companies that would have this genre in order to make the genre known. we chose the release date to be the 1st of September as that is the first day of autumn which supports our theme.

Creating the digipak

It was time that we started creating the digipak and so we went out and took some professional pictures in a local near by school. we had taken numerous pictures in order for us to have a wide selection to choose from. after we had taking it back to the media room to edit and create the final digipak. here are som eof the pictures we took.

We wanted a raw effect that carried alot of atmosphere, this is becuase we wanted it to carry on from the music video so we set our own individual style, the location was majority brickwork so it has that kind of effect we also wanted a slight autumn look which is shown through the costume.

We used photoshop to edit the colour correlation, we drakened the colours to give it the look that we wanted. it did take some time to think about which photo goes where and we added a dedications, poem and also creators section. the font we decided to continue the autumn theme by using browns, creams and golds which goes really well with the images. Also we wanted a Font that would show mauturity but also look very modern and eye-catching.

Promotional schemes

We thought to find other ways to promote our band we decided to have an online poster that promotes the song and music video, which draws more awareness of the band. This will be on things like Facebook, Msn, Myspace and Twitter.

We Also though of where our adverts would be published or shown, we thought MTV Base Flava And Kiss would play our video and show our adverts, also magazines like RWD and The Oprah Magazine. This way we would directly reach our target audience so they would be aware of the band.
