Ideas for magazine advert

We have had a lot of ideas as to what we want our magazine advert to look like, here a few of those we have looked at.

This magazine advert for Jay-Z's 'The Blueprint 3' is a very striking and bold advert. The magazine advert is an enlarged image of the album cover. The advert shows the artists name in a bold font, this is so that the readers know who the artist is. The artist is shown as being bigger than the empire state building, this shows his status within the  music industry. Also the fact that its the empire state building is illustrative to the song 'empire state of mind' which is one of Jay-Z's singles about life in New York. 

Also the colour scheme is bold and bright. It also has a running theme as with his album it features red, black and white that is also featured in the advertisement so that it is easily recognisable that they are related products. 

The written caption below 'Jay-Z "bigger than hip-hop?" ' is relatable through the visuals of the article as Jay-Z is bigger than the tallest building in New York: empire state building.
