Task 15 - Magazine adverts

task 15

From this task I have learnt a lot about the conventional magazine adverts in my genre. The artist, in the majority of adverts, is very much the centre of attenition, featured in a close up or mid shot in the centre of the frame, taking up the majority of the space. This helps the viewer recognise the artist and idiolise them as the most important thing. I think this relates to the nature of the lyrics in the genre as they make the listener want to live the lifestyle of the artist and look up to them. Common colour schemes are the blue and red used conventionally in the videos as well as gold as a clear sign of wealth. The adverts are vey simple and reflect the demand from the target audience that don't want to have to read lots of information. Some of the mystery in the adverts came across as arrogant and made you feel like you should know things like the re;ease date or the best songs. It will clearly help my planning as I will be making my own and trying to reflect the representation of the artist in the same way that the real artists are reflected and also give the target audince the same things they expect from the real artist.
