Magazine Advert - EVALUATING FINAL DESIGNS

Here is my final design for my DIGIPAK Magazine Advert. I have continued the theme of the animal masks and the balloons; using darker colours to show the more serious side to the artist, contrasting with the more playful video. The images on the advert are the same as the front and back cover of the  DIGIPAK but placed together.  I have also used the same font and background as the DIGIPAK to also continue on the theme. 


I was deliberating to show the DIGIPAK cover on the poster or not as I wasn't sure if it changed the minimalist and balanced look I was trying to achieve. In the end, I decided against using the DIGIPAK cover on the poster as a mixture of the front and back cover are the main feature of the poster and I feel like there is just too much going on. 


 Below are some examples of the original images I took for the DIGIPAK and Advert. The one at the bottom was the photo used for album cover and poster. I chose this one because I like the way George isn't looking directly into the camera but instead is looking around him, adding to the sense of surrealism that he is with a group of teenagers acting as animals while he plays violin. The bright colours also compliment the playful elements to the album cover and also the music video but in the poster I chose to dull the colours of the other characters slightly and to make George stand out as the bright part to the advert.
