Tinie Tempah is placed in the center of the frame, which suggests importance and
authority. His name is positioned above him at the top of the poster, which
shows that the music company are trying to capture the audience' attention as to
who's album they are selling. His expression, body language, and dominance
within the frame show that they are predominantly featuring him as the main
selling point. They have not chosen to use many props as the selling point.
Although, we can see that he has a city held within his arms, which suggest that
he has the world 'in his hands', highlighting his ability to create music that
is enjoyed across the globe. The darkness of the poster, and use of sunglasses
convey secrecy and wonder - thus making the audience want to know what Tinie
Tempah has to offer in his new album.
They have included the
date that the album will be released which allows the audience to become excited
about the release of the album, which hypes up the reputation of the album -
attracting a larger and wider audience. It can be seen as a "teaser" poster,
which explains why the poster is so intriguing - used to entice the
audiences curiosity without revealing too much. - Lizzy
Ed Sheeran dominates the majority of this poster, his expression is happy and
looks like he is smiling about his achievements - as below his Brit award is highlighted. By
showing his well earned Brit award, the audience are enticed by his credibility
and high end achievements. This is shown in an orange text which contrasts with
the black and white background picture - making it stand out from the poster.
The use of orange also relates to his iconic ginger hair, which is
widely recognized in relation to the famous artist. They continually press that
he is British - suggesting that his music may be less mechanical
and commercialized like we see nowadays in country's such as
America.
They use the same font for
all the text on the poster which may suggest a linear genre within his album,
and could show the fluency of his music. His face is dominant within the frame,
conveying his fame and level of recognition - they choose to use his face as the
selling point rather than his name or elaborate props. The lighting represents a
contrast of light and dark, on two halfs of the poster. This depicts that some
of his music may be light and positive, and that others could be darker and
deeper in meaning and background content. - Lizzy
Marina is the main focus on the poster, capturing the attention of
people, especially the target audience. The look of the poster links to the
cover of her album as this image has been used many times before for different
promotions, and covers. As she is takes up almost the whole of the page, this
suggests her status; how important she may be within the music industry and in
her style of music. The way she is looking in the image shows her facial
expression clearly, it shows her looking slightly mysterious yet also
portraying that she believes that she is the most important person, her eyes
also capture attention as it draws you in making you wonder and question to
yourself if the image is intriguing, what the album may also be like.
The text on the poster is all the same; the advertising text matches up to
the font that is used othe album ‘Electra Heart’. The size of the text is the
same, apart from her name, which dominates the top third of the advert, which
suggests that she is the main focus and therefore her name draws attention to
the eye of the audience. Also, by having the words “THE #1 ALBUM IN THE UK”
suggests to people that it is an album that they need to buy and if they don’t,
they are missing out on something which could be amazing. - Emily
The main focus of the poster for this Coldplay album are the band itself, mainly of the lead vocalist; Chris Martin who is floating up by the ceiling, this dominates the actual image showing the audience that they are the best, especially the man (Chris Martin) who is floating as it makes you think, why is it him floating? why not the other members? The overall look of this album poster looks quite old fashioned; vintage. The image itself is very eye catching because of what is happening, and even though the colours are very dull and vintage looking, the black border going around the edge contrasts everything and makes everything stand out. Apart from the image itself the text of the band dominates the page, especially with the white text against. The white text stands out against the dark background. At the bottom of the of the page they have also included small text that has been placed at the bottom of the page informing the audience about their website therefore it lets people know where all information can be found and also about any other information about tours etc. - Emily
