Magazine adverts research

30seconds 2 mars








To the left shows an example of 30 Seconds To Mars, which is a mixed genre band. Their genres include alternative rock, hard rock, emo and progressive metal.




This magazine advert has no image of the band on their magazine advert. This goes against the Goodwin's point about selling the artist/band. However the way that they sell their band is by having the special triangle with a line through it, which is placed underneath the black square with writing in it, and with red text over it.

To the right shows an example of Ellie Goulding's magazine advert. Her genre is indie/folk/pop. It follows the convention by having an image of the artist. 

This example of a magazine advert has more detail for example "Lights #1 UK album chart debut" and "BBC sound of 2010 award winner". This is an example of selling the artist, through her successes. Also selling the artist by having a mid-close up image of the artist.


Below shows an example of Lily Allen's magazine adverts. Her genres are popskareggae fusionelectropop. Unlike in Ellie Goulding's exmaple of a magazine advert I've found above, the picture of Lily Allen is placed on the far right with the information about her song "The Fear" and her "forthcoming album"    to her left. Where as in Ellie Goulding's one, Ellie Goulding is placed in the centre of her magazine advert, with all her information is placed in the middle as well. However above and below her face on the image, so you can see her face clearly.
