Magazine poster drafts

I edited the picture first, cropping the side and the top off. I also drained the colour from the image giving it an old style look. The mise en scene captures the iconographic shots of folk and nature, capturing the trees and woodland area. It features the conventional album title, artist title, release date and artists website. The font is in capitals with the artists and album name in bold. The  writing is quite difficult to see as it merges in to the background, making it harsh on the eye.

This close up shot features the artist looking down at the ground, maybe not creating much interaction with the audience. I drained the colour from the original image to give it an old style look which fits in to the genre of folk. It features the conventional artist title in bold writing, with 'Jakob' in black and 'Bjorn' in a dark red colour and the conventional release date with the artists image. I wanted to do a poster very simple and basic which gives the audience the information they need but sometimes the audience want to know more information like links and album names.

This image was taken against a white background with harsh lighting against it, creating the shadow. I edited the image and put it into black and white to put more focus on to the coloured text and main image. It features the conventional artist in bold red connoting the album is about love. The album name is underneath that and in black not standing out with further information telling you its his debut album. Theres conventional links to pre order on his website and the release date at the bottom of the page. It features the less conventional quotations from the magazines he would involved in and their rating of the album. The artist is looking straight at the camera creating interaction with his target audience.                                       

This is an image from my digipak and i thought i'd try edit it in a portrait format to create a magazine advertisement. It features the conventional artist on the poster as well as the title of the artist and album. Also the release date of the artist. The blue sky allowed me to apply visible red coloured text on to it which would be easily visible bringing focus on the conventions. It doesnt look enough like a poster advertisement for a music digipak and the audience wouldnt be able to recognise what it's advertising.

This image features the artist to the right of the poster, looking straight at the camera creating interaction with the audience. His clothing style represents his genre of music and his image. He dresses casually and relaxed, showing he's not to bothered about his look and more about the music. As the background is plain back in focuses more on the artist and contrasts against the white text alongside him.   The font is in capitals and not in bold making it easy on the eye. It features the conventional artist name which is the biggest text to make the audience aware, underneath is the album title and at the bottom is information that it's out now as well as links to the website.
