Poster Analysis.

One other thing that belongs to our Digi Pack, is to create a poster in order to advertise the release of our CD and Music Video. I have looked at a few posters from artists of the similar genre, to analyze them and get inspiration from.

Avril Lavigne- The Best Damn Thing (2007)

This is a poster advertising the release of Avril Lavigne's 2007 album 'The Best Damn Thing'. The image is the same as the one she has on the album. This poster is very simple, with Avril in a mid-shot with a simple grey background, and her name, and the name of the album printed on the top left hand corner with a very punky pink heart in the background. The overall theme of the artwork is kept the same in terms of fonts.






Maroon 5 -Hands All Over Me (2011)

This advertisement poster by Maroon 5 is pretty easy to create. Its in black and white with slight bits of red in it to make the title stand out a little bit better. It features a simple black and white image of the band itself, that cannot be found on the album itself. It advertises a concert the band will be having in the specific place at the specific time to be able to promote their new album 'Hands All Over Me' with the album artwork and few of the singles that can be found on the album showed on the poster. The plain white font is set on the image which comes across as quite effective with this style of artwork.   




P!nk- I'm Not Dead (2006)

I find this poster to be very creative because of the use of the colors and images, and the pose P!nk does.I like the roses in front of the image because it also matches the red-white striped shirt she is wearing and makes the poster stand out. The font below it titling the name of the album, which comes across as quite effective  The image that is featured on this poster, can actually be found on the exact album itself. Pink said she titled the album 'I'm Not Dead' because ''its about being alive and feisty and not sitting down and shutting up even though people would like you to'.
