Magazine Advert Research

As the digipak requires creating 6 different frames, I am hoping the magazine poster will be easier to make. There are not any templates for magazine posters, as they can be as unique as the artist. However, they must match the rest of my products in order to have a successful overall campaign for the song/album. Due to having to create lots of different covers for the digipak, I am going to complete my digipak first and make my magazine poster based on it.




In the mean time, I have researched a magazine poster for A Tribe Called Quest's album 'Midnight Marauders', to get inspiration for my own magazine advert. This one is also based on the digipak, as the front cover is featured in the centre. It promotes the 'first single and video: "Award Tour"', which is something I can include in my advert as I will be promoting my music video and ultimately the song too. It also adds a message from the artist at the bottom, "We hope you will find our Midnight Marauders presentation precise, bass heavy and just right". This is uncommon in magazine adverts however it adds a nice comment to the reader. Other than that, it includes the record label logo 'JIVE' and the artist logo, which are two things I will include in mine.
