Research and planning: Generic conventions and analysing adverts

Generic conventions and analysing adverts

Purpose:

• Includes key information such as release dates for the audience to be aware of
• Promotes the album for the artist

What are the generic conventions?

• Album title 
• Artist name 
• Release date
• Key singles
• Where you can buy and stream 
• artist image 
• parental advisory logo 

Three examples of adverts:

Analsying these three adverts has been extremely beneficial to my group because we have identified what ideas we could take from these Hip-hop adverts. I really like the first advert design because it very plain but different, the artist has used a plain background which is very good because it makes his advert look very professional. As well as having a plain, the artist has placed different sizes of objects over the background and he has placed a symbol on the objects which symbolises his album. I think that this idea is very effective and good so by using a similar idea to this will allow us to attract a wider  audience as this design is different and not common in the Hip-hop genre. 

Conclusion:

Researching this post was highly beneficial to my group because now we have an basic idea of what our advert could look like and the things that we want our advert to include. Analysing three different advert examples has enhanced our idea as we want our advert to be very eye catchy, we will be doing this by having an gold outline of the album, we will also do this on the digipak so our loyal fans will know who the album belongs to.
