The features to identify within a magazine advert:

The key features in a magazine advert is star motifs, this is something we can relate back to dyers theory because the star motifs is an image which you can portray for the fan based audience   to the audience through the uses of the magazine advert. Another couple  key features which is shown in a magazine advert is the colours, typography and layout. The colours layout and  typography are put in a particular way to attract the  audience and other members of the public, also making sure it fits that it fits the genre of music, for instants  magazine covers would have the image and colours stand out more than the typography, because its more eye catching to the audience.

Research and Planning : Digipak: Drafts For Digipak

This is our drafts  for the digipak and what we was looking to use this is important to do so we can see which design has looks more conventional to the house genre  these are the drafts what we have 

My Digipak



                                                                                                                                                          Jemar Digipak

Dwayne's Digipak



What we dedicated is my draft would be the best to use as final the  product, because mine was the most effective and  conventional to the `House`genre also complimented the artist.

The Drafts

Draft 1:

 


 
Advantages 
  • Graphics suit the house genre.
  • Artist is clear and identifiable.
  • Visually appealing

Disadvantages
  • Text needs to be clearer
  • Typography needs to be consistent with advert
  • More information about artist and production company
  • Need to create the slide that includes the CD

Draft 2:
Advantages
  • Images of artist create star appeal
  • Design on CD is very urban and reflects Target audience well
  • Colour compliment advert better
Disadvantage
  • Information on book needs to be included
  • Artist name on album
  • Simple layout, needs to be a bit more visual and stand put more
the draft that we have going to use is the second one the reason why is because this one would be more conventional to the genre and all the members of the group like the idea, so what we will do is work with this 

Research and Planning Advert: Draft for Adverts

The drafting process was important because...
 
Draft 1:
 

This is the firstt draft that me and my group have came up with. What we have looked deeply into is the colour scheme  as you can see from our draft,is we went with a black and white theme to stnd out to the audience.
The positve criticism:
 
Areas to improve:
the disadvantages of this is that the audience wouldn't be able to see the typography in this advert , that much because it isn't that clear, all so the artist of the name is not very clear which we would need to work on 
Draft 2
The second draft what me and my group have came up is similar but a different picture and we have more information about the artist and we have made it more clear to the audience
The Position Criticisms:
  • Image creates a star appeal
  • Typography is more clearer
 
Areas of improve :
  • The colour scheme compliments this genre
  • The layout need to be better
  •

Product overview

who are they?
JJ who is associated with house genre first emerged in 2008 when he was signed by MTA as they witnessed his talent and potential which they believe would one day make him the most talked about person in the world. (Artist name) talents have not gone unnoticed as he has been nominated for countless awards such as World Music Awards for World's Best Electronic Dance Music Artist and World Music Awards for World’s Best Song.

The magazine album concept

What is it?
We need a magazine advert with the visual representation of our artist in order to promote their star image and relate to the house genre. The artist will be initially wearing casual clothing which the house sub-culture is familiar to and would wear. The different location uses will allow the music genre to be outlined. We also thought that since their debut album is called ‘’aftermath’’,we’d relate some of the names to some of the tracks.

Why are we doing it?
This is our Artist’s first ever magazine advert in which we hope will bring us success and recognition due to the attraction of specific target audiences. The artist’s clothing will relate to the house sub-culture therefore, allowing them to be grouped in correct genre.

What is the reaction we want?

We want our target audience to be able to relate to our artist as we hope they can relate to the sharing of their common norms, values and sub culture. We also hope this encourages the audience’s foreknowledge as they may want to know more about the artist and also the song/video.

How will we know it worked?

We will know whether it has worked or not based on the sales revenue we receive as this will determine whether or not it has appealed to our target audience. In addition, an increased fan base of our artist will also help us determine whether it has worked or not as this would mean our audience has adapted and is able to relate to our artist star image.

We can assess whether our campaign has worked due to the sales revenue we receive. In addition, we can also check whether it has worked or not based on our audience’s feedback as this will give us an insight into the minds of our audience.

Planning :Pre production

Detailed below is the pre production paper work. This is crucial as we would need to show that  our characters and  members of the cast will be safe at all stages. Furthermore, this wil nmake it clear what is expected of all indivual roles and contrbutiond towards the making of the video. The pre production paper work is also useful because it is structured plan which the cast can follow and be sure what their duties are. Such as being aware of specific hair and make up needed for each scene or charaters being aware of what shots that will be used.
