Within any music magazine you will find advertisements for new albums being released by bands however big or small. There are certain things that can be found on almost all of these adverts that will be crucial for me to include when making my own magazine advert to make it look realistic and reliable.
These conventions include:
- The artists name and the new album title.
- The release date of the album and the download.
- Website, myspace, facebook or twitter of the artist.
- Product content such as extra DVD footage or any bonus tracks that are included.
- Magazine reviews and star ratings from magazines and newspapers depending on the genre, such as NME, Q, Smash Hits, Kerrang, The Guardian.
- The name of record label.
- Tour dates.
- Photographs or graphics of the artist or things associated with their album.
- Where the album is avaliable to perchase such as HMV or Amazon.
- Lines such as “out now” or “debut album”.
- Any offers that are avaliable such as free downloads.
