Post 12 - Adverts Designs

These are the scans of our Rock album advertisements designs.We have all gone for slightly different looks to make sure that we have a variety to choose from when it comes to picking our final idea. We will choose a part from every advertisement to make sure we are including everyone's work from our group. We have gone for two Photoshop designs and two drawn designs. This is so that we can see how the different media's look and within the drawings we could be more free with our designs.We have decided to try and involve the iconic monkey within our adverts as this would become an iconic figure that people would recognise with the band.
Two of the advertisements are in black and white and the other two are in colour. This is because we are not yet sure which one will look better and will reflect our genre more. We quite like the effect that black and white has on the viewer and feel it shows quite a lot of emotion which is good for a Rock band.

We have chosen to stick to the stereotypical conventions of an advertisement by making sure that we include an image of the artist, the artists name, the album name and the release date. In my poster, I have decided to include the image of a monkey as it will become very iconic within the band and will be featured in everything. I have decided to place the band members within the middle of the poster because I feel it will then draw in the audience more and will therefore be more eye catching. In the final advertisement, our group will try to include quotes from other producers or companies to help bring across the real look to our album.
