Magazines are part of the 21st century and they are everywhere we look. As a young adult I'm a prime suspect for the magazine advertises to pounce on. I love all things fashion, beauty, media, music and celebrity related and I believe I'm not the only one with this guilty pleasure.
Many people around my age range (18-25) will agree that magazines are a good way to past the time while travelling or even just as pure enjoyment and a hobby, so in relation to my digipak it is essential that my music video promotion in a magazine is one that will make the reader pause to scan and decide within those first through milliseconds if my album is worth purchasing.
Below are some examples of some artists who I have taken inspiration from and/or just genuinely enjoy their music. It's a clear depiction that the magazine advert reflects on the album so when going to find the album to buy it you can just refer to or remember the image and not have trouble getting confused by the overwhelming amount of artists albums on sale today.
I know the above image is of a front cover advert just promoting Katy Perry and not necessarily advertising her new album but I chose this image because the main image used is from her 2014 Calendar and also her appearance is the same as on her Album cover this is from her 'Prism' era and the colours and image reflect her new album.
I think my favourite style of magazine is Lana's. It's simplicity is what appeals more to me. I think I'll do both an A4 portrait and landscape advert and try out different styles and see which one works more through social media polls.
