magazine mock ad

This is the initial design for Iceburg's magazine advertisement to promote his new album. It shows the artist in main focus because he is not well known enough to simply have an abstarct design with his name. New artist's have certain demands from their label and one of those is a lot of shots of them and this has been applied. The mise-en-scene is appropriate as a new style rap artist two fashion styles are used to compliment each other; he is wearing a varsity jacket to show his urban edge, he is also wearing hi tops and a check shirt which are normally ascociated with indie or pop artists. This shows the adaptibility of the artist and that he can be a versatile commodity.

The name of the artist and album are in bold and catchy colours so they immidiately stand out from the rest of the ad as they are the important factors. The release date is also in bold but is not as large so that it doesn't steal focus but still has prominance. The endorsement of music stores has also been used such as 'i-tunes' so that the reader is aware of were the product can be purchased from. Along with this there is a twitter page so that fans can follow his progress to find out about further promotional events and future releases.
