Magazine advert final version & ideas

This is the final version of my magazine advert. I have made a few conscious decisions along the journey of creating this piece of media. One decision was to exclude the ratings and reviews from companies in an attempt to boost advertising and entice more customers. I chose to not include this based on the popularity of the artist and to allow the advert to look as simplistic as possible whilst still following the conventions of a media product of this type. I also decided to depict the writing in text apart from the date of the release. This is simply to place emphasis on the date and to highlight it as vital and important information which must be read by the audience.
