PLANNING & SKETCHES - Magazine Advert

IDEA 1:

My first idea was to have a close-up of George's face with a realistic lion face placed on top; similar to the photo of George on the lyric book of the DIGIPAK. For the background I would use bright colors and balloons to contrast with the more sullen and morbid expression seen on the lions face. Although, I am not sure about using this idea as the poster (especially for a first album or EP) should really advertise the artist, showing their face and allowing their audience to connect with the musician, not just through the music.

IDEA 2:

The second idea also uses similar themes of the DIGIPAK using animal masks, balloons and the photo of George and the actors on the front cover of the album. The advert as a whole would incorporate some of the main features of the DIGIPAK continuing the idea of branding. The photo would be on the face of a black balloon again going with the idea that it contrasts with the happy and colorful themes of both the DIGIPAK and the music video, mainly so that George's audience can see a more serious side to him as a whole and his music.
