Our Final Music Video

Ancillary Task - Magazine Advertisement

I decided to use the same scene shot from our music video in both the digipak and the magazine advertisement. I wanted to create consistency between the digipak and the advert in order to create a feeling of branding. I used this particular image for both ancillary tasks as I believe it not only includes the four of us clearly in shot but also incorporates the feeling of our music video, with the layering of the kalediascope.
My magazine advertisement reflects the traditional conventions of existing advertisements I looked at during my research. The largest text is the band name "IDACOR" which acts as a branding logo as itself due to the capitalisation, the large release date is an important element to the advert as it informs the audience of the upcoming albums release date, which is ultimately the purpose of the advert to promote and advertise. The bands website link at the bottom of the advert 'www.idacor.co.uk/energy' promotes the band and the bands record company "Checkmate Music Productions INC" is included in the left hand corner of the advertisement, both of these elements create authenticity to the magazine advert, an aspect that was highlighted to me during my researchof  existing advertisements.
