"A unified consistency" and magazine advert.

For our CD covers, poster and magazine advert we need them to be clear that they are all promoting the same band and song. By doing this we need to keep a unified consitency between each thing we do. It is important to have this synergy betweem the magazine advert and the CD as it makes it easier for people to recognise them. An advert would not be affective if it didn't represent the product, or in this case, the single. It helps the reader form a connection between the two

Features that will be kept consistent;
  • A colour theme - this creates a synergy between the two making it easier to recognise faster.
  • The font for the band name - this acts as a form of brand name and is what helps the reader identify the band/artist instantly.
  • Band members need to remain the same - this is especially important if there are photos of the bands on either the CD or magazine advert. If the band memebers change this will confuse the audience.
  • The same or similar image - this will help the reader recognise the CD instantly. Therefore they will not necessarily have to read the information for them to know what the single is.
  • A consistent theme - this helps the reader create a link if there are similar icons, similar style photos etc.
Today we will be making out magazine advert. This will inclue the record label, release date, sizing hierarchy etc.
