Completed Advert



Changes made due to feedback
  • We changed the title from being underlined to not being underlined due to the feedback from the teacher saying that it did not look appealing.
  • We also decided to make the artist's photos black and white due to the feedback from the teacher.
  • Another important change we made due to feedback given was the size, position and the colour of the availability date of the album. It was changed to being a different colour, made bold and large and at the top of the page next top the title which made it more clear to the viewers.
  • Another impact that feedback had on our advert was from the suggestion to add the Itunes text on there to make the advert seem more authentic.


This is the completed final product for our Holy Grail album advert and I believe that it was a successfully made advert that looks professional thanks to all the detail put into the text and appealing due to the colours and images used. 

The photos used in the advert are of the two main artists both looking at the camera and both facing slightly to the opposite side. when taking these photos we realized how we wanted to set them out and how they would look and I believe that the vision we had in our heads were expressed in the final product. They both look proportionate to each other, giving neither power over the other and they are both in black and white which matches the album cover and gives the whole project a clear togetherness and it helps make it look like a complete project. This black and white imagery carries on over to everything on the advert except from the colour of the release date of the album which is in another colour and bold which helps it stand out and it attracts the audiences attention to the important information. 

The text featured in this advert was given lots of thought and we took inspiration from other adverts to see what we could add to make it seem more professional. The details that we added were things like the website at the bottom which was very common on adverts and the "available on Itunes" text accompanied by the logo to ensure people that it will be available on the most popular format to download music. The title of the Album is placed at the very top to give it more importance and make it on of the first things that the viewer sees. The names of the artists are just as important and is in a big, bold and sophisticated font over the artist's photos and it helps the audience to identify the artists and glorify their name.  The use of white on most of the text was important to match the whole style of the album.

Images such as the album cover at the bottom left is a common thing to add on hip hop album covers to ensure that the audience know what to look for when they are making their purchase. The record label is also a nice addition to make it seem even more professional.
