The font used for presenting the new album is very simplistic and similar to the one used on the front image of the album. On the other hand, the fact that the writing has been overlapped on a black line makes the title stand out, which attracts people much more easily. The house style is also very attractive, mainly because the colours used (black and white) are associated with class. As the writing is neither girly nor masculine, we can safely assume that the album is directed towards a wide variety of people.

Additionally, the poster also includes the hit songs of the album. This aspect is very important mainly because it attracts customers with what the product can offer. Therefore, having the most popular songs of the album displayed brings more value to the album. The fact that the names of the hit songs are typed in red also makes it stand out, mainly because it alerts the customer. The colour also stands out because the poster is in black and white and thus, the red colour makes the writing much more visible.

The image used is the same one used for the actual album, which connects the poster to the product. Although the picture may seem overused, it advertises the appearance of the real album, which makes sure that customers will recognise it more easily. This aspect also gives the customer a “tester” of the real product, which assures people about quality of the album. The image also portrays the singer in a rather serious mood, her eyes being staring directly at the audience. This also helps as it not only gives the product an aura of mysteriousness, but also connects to the audience.

Although the magazine advert seems to attract a wide range of audience, the fact that there is a label for “explicit content” tells us that the content of the album is directed towards adults. This aspect is especially important, as it warns the customers beforehand and thus, respecting the audience.

Another important aspect is the website and the emblem of the label that financially supported the making of the product. Giving credit appears to be important as it gives the customer ideas of what kind of music the label usually produces. The website is also a good way of directing the fans towards more information about the artist and the album.

By reviewing this magazine advert, I have learnt that the house style presenting the name of the artist needs to be extremely visible in order to catch the attention of the public. The image also needs to be wide, mainly because it is the most important element that sells the product. This is because it makes the audience connect to the album and also gives an idea of the tone of the music from the album. Therefore, from this particular magazine advert, the viewer would be given an idea of how the album is through the mood of the picture.
