Magazine article

Author: Amy /













As a new up-coming band promotion is very very important in getting the band noticed to the public. Promoting your band correctly is the key to your band. Without promotion your band would never et notices, not in large quantitiies anyways. With the use of Photoshop and other technologies today ceating the correct article to promotre your band can be very creative and therefore effective. In the magazine article you need to connect with the correct target audience for your band, not only should this be done in the design of your article it also needs to be placed in the correct magazine. A magazine with the correct target audience for your band. Due to the use of imagery and photographs for The Crookes i thought this would be the best way of keeping to their house style and again this now acts as a logo for the band, this is how they are continaully represented and this is how the audience will recognise the band. I have kept the magazine advertisment very simple yet eye-catching. I have kept to the sepia tone affect which runs through my promotional work for the band. Again i have used the red font colour as it works well in contrast to the sepia background. I have used the image which is the front cover of The Crookes digipak to make it relevant. I had included the release date and the forms in whch you can buy the debut album. I have also included two logos for Amazon and HMV as these are places in which you can purchase the new release. The magazine article is conventional yet eye-catching and represents the band in the correct way, appealing to the correct target audience.

I think the best magazine artcicles are simple yet eye-catching. I wanted my magazine article to have a simple layout and bold catching titles. I wanted THE CROOKES to stand out as after all this is the band im promoting. However, i also wanted to incude quotes from the band and an image which brands the band.
I think the magazine article is perfect for the band, it represents and promotes them in the correct way and relates strongly to the image of the band and how i/they want to be percieved to their target audience. I am very pleased with the final outcome of it.
