Green Day Album Advert Analysis

The advert itself is very conventional to music and music magazines. They have used the colour scheme of black, red and white, this also goes with the cover of the album which is shown in the advert.

The layout looks like it was set on a A4 page with a landscape image of the lead singer for the single as well as the actual album. They have separated everything on the left column with the use of horizontal white lines so the target audience can distinguish the difference and this also stands out from the black background.

The colour scheme used in this advert reflects rock bands, they have done this with the conventional colour scheme. The main reason for this is because it’s eye catching and appealing to the target audience. The age range for this genre could be between 16-30 as green day have released music for about 20 years.

The main image is the feature of the advert. This has been due to the use of the white writing over the image as it stands out over the darkness of the image as the lead singer is mainly wearing black.

The font that is mainly used is a sans serif font for the information, important information is in red and the rest is in white.

The Writing on the image is all in white to stand out and stick to the colour scheme. The band name is in a sans serif font slightly distressed which goes with the rock image of the band.
