ANCILLARY TASK 2 - POSSIBLE IMAGES FOR MY ADVERTISEMENT

Before starting to create my music magazine advertisement I need to think about what image to use as the main subject of the advertisement. This is vital because it needs to be representative of the album, while still showing continuity in relation to both the CD cover and the album/music video that it will be advertising.

This is an image that I could possibly use for my advertisement.  This image would be good because it is representative of my CD cover, which links directly to this, in regards to location and image of the artist but also to the music video.
I like this image because it shows the artist directly looking at the audience, and shows clear focus on the artist and her persona. Through this image it is clear to see what she is representing and the persona created for her in the music video.
As well as this, this image will be ideal because the focus of the location has a direct link to the CD cover. This is often seen in music advertisements, when promoting the CD  album.

This is another possible image for my magazine advertisement. Again, this image links and is representative of my music video and CD product. This is vital because it enables a clear connection between the advertisement and the video for the target audience to be able to recognise. This image gives clear focus on the artist, who is the subject throughout.

The only problem with this is the background of the image, where the colour is not appealing. This affects the image because it will not stand out to the audience when promoting.
