Font

The font which has been used on this


poster is stereotypical of all promotional
posters, as it is clear, bold and is easy for
the audience to read. The font which
features on this poster has been used in a
variety of different ways, in order to
highlight different aspects of the page. For
example, the name of the artists has been
written in a large font, to portray to the
audience who the artist is. At the bottom of
the page, a second font has been used. This
particular font lacks the boldness which is
used on the rest of the page, allowing it to
become extremely noticeable. This font is
used to portray the thoughts/reviews of
music magazines, this information is
extremely important, and allows the
audience to see just how good (or bad) the
album/single is.
Colour Scheme
The colour scheme which features
throughout this poster is extremely unique.
The most popular colour on the page is a
pale green, which highlights the dark green
text at the head and foot of the page.
Similarly to the oasis poster, this poster
features a central image, which uses
different colours to the rest of the poster.
The colours used on the image are
somewhat natural; however shades of
black, grey and red also feature, allowing
the image to stand out and become a main
focus point.

Page Layout This particular poster features a simplistic yet


clear layout, which allows the audience to see
every single piece of information in an
extremely clear way. Similarly to the Oasis
poster, this poster features the name of the
artist at the very top of the page; this particular
technique is used so that the audience can
clearly see who the artist is, and who the
album/single has been released by. Directly
below the title is the name of the album/song ,
this piece of information has been positioned
in this specific place, insuring that it is the
second piece of information the audience
reads, the fact that it has been placed directly
beneath the titles suggests that the name of
the album/song is extremely important. In the
middle of the page features an image of the
artist (in this case, the image is also of the
album cover) and featuring at the bottom of
the page is the release date, and other
information, such as reviews, ratings and web
addresses. Although these aspects of
information are situated at the bottom of the
page, they are still extremely important.
Information such as the release date has been
positioned at the bottom of the page, meaning
that it is one of, if not the last part of the
poster the audience sees. This technique has
been used to ensure that the release date of
the album/song sticks in the audiences
memory.
