Magazine Advert

We initially wanted to do a two page spread ad but had a few difficulties in doing so so therefore we were torn between that and a one page ad. As a compromise we made two different ads and allowed the public to vote on which one they liked the most and matched with the rock/touring theme. The following is what we created.

Two Page Ad

This is one of our final versions of the magazine advert and is created to be published as a two page magazine advert. The design has taken screen grabs of the actual video and intertwined them together with a dark theme to make them in sync with the video. The use of colors on the title is to emphasise the key aspects, in red, with the white reading "Featuring the hit new single" as is expected with most adverts to have. The popilarity of Facebook was the inspritation to add a facebook link with a the reference to a Kings of Leon page so fans can follow us. I added the stores such as HMV, Amazon and i-Tunes as these are the most popular options for purchasing music in general.

Single Page Ad

Here I got a picture from a real Kings of Leon concert and made it the background, the reason for this was because if someone who didn't know Kings of Leon saw a crowd as large and vibrant as this would realise that they must be big and would make them eager to see how good they were. I also decided to keep to the dark black and red theme which was seen in the video with the text to keep everythin consistent and therefore professional.

We have decided to use this ad because we think it will sell the album more efficiently.
