Magazine Advertisment Analysis 2



This Slipknot concert DVD advert takes up an entire page of the magazine it's in. The cover used for this DVD displays a large image of a devil and the page is all dark colours which fits in well with the bands image and the Rock genre of music.

The name of the band 'Slipknot' in depicted in the centre of the page in the bands signature front and is a bright white which contrasts from the darker coloured background and picture behind it, as well as the other small print which is also white and stands out clearly. Their logo is also used on every single one of their products and is copyrighted because of branding rights.

The name of the DVD 'Voliminal inside the mind' however is small compared to the name of the band and doesn't stand out as much. The image of the devil makes the DVD look interesting and relates to a horror film so again works well with the bands genre.

This will help when creating my own Magazine advertisement as I can see what colours and fonts match up with the genre I am using, and how images can effect the style I am working with.
