The Creating of My Magazine Advert

A Magazine advert has to be carefully thought of. It is very important to sell the artist as good as possible. We decided to use the same picture for the magazine advert that we used for our front cover for our digipak which is a closeup of our artist. We want to sell her face. We want that it becomes an icon everybodt should see that picture and know what she stands for. However the picture alone did not create this impact so we added a few effects to it such as pulling the colour out of it this alone did still not work so we decided to add the so called “Sin City Effect” which is highlighting just one certain point in the frame by putting it into colour. We decided to do that to her eyes and eyelashes. Eyes are the mirror to the soul. Her eyes and eyelashes shine in bright colours such as yellow and green therefore she looks wild, dangerous, exotic. These were exactly the attributes that we wanted to give her. We had some very good feedback where people compared her to a lioness. This was very good because we wanted to make her look animalistic and dangerous in order to create the maximum impact. The tour dates are just below her mouth in a bright coulour so it is very obivious!
