Poster analysis 2

 Pendulum

 Digipack

                                                                      Poster

Conventions met:

• Name of artist
• Name of album
• Brand identity
• Release date
• Website
• Company logo's

What is good about the poster:

As you can see above they tick many of the boxes above for the conventions of magazine adverts. This means the audience knows when, where and what to look for. The brand identity is simply the front cover of the album keeping it simple with little confusion  They also include their company logos at the bottom of the poster so they get their recognition. Their website has been made large and in red so passers by read it and subconsciously take it in. The art work is very colourful with reds, yellows,greens,and blues. The pattern on the outside of the circle are electrical circuits, this is a direct link to there genre of 'Electronic Rock'. There is a baby in the centre of the circle this has many different interpretations. One of them possibly being the birth of something new, a new type of music. The Font at the top is put there so it is out the way of the image and artwork. It is also the first text you look at, the eye would then move down over the image to the rest of the writing.

What is bad:

It is over crowded with text at the bottom with information about what is inside the album, I don't think this is really needed. This would make the people passing by have to stop to read it. However they do combat this with the large red writing showing their website.
