These two advertisements show how an artist's promotional style changes as their popularity increases. The Laura Marling advertisement evolved from a homemade style to a more mainstream photo shoot style. Less popular artists like The May Dolls do not need to appeal to a wide audience, allowing more original advertisement designs. As bands like Mumford & Sons and Noah and the Whale became more mainstream, their advertisements adopted a larger size and more prominent font styles.

Sally discusses her music video production which breaks conventions of the typical pop genre. She shot her video in black and white to a slower, more meaningful song. The video targets teenage girls who have experienced love and heartbreak. Colors like black, white, and red are used to represent darkness from heartbreak, innocence of youth, and the danger and passion of love. The poster places the artist's name and album title prominently to identify its subject while the blurred image of the artist looking troubled conveys she understands the audience's problems too.MIKA // The Boy Who Knew Too Much Advert Analysis

Social loafing refers to reduced individual effort when working in a group compared to working alone. In a classic rope pulling study, individual performance decreased as group size increased, demonstrating the Ringlemann Effect. There are several theories for why social loafing occurs, including that working in a group diffuses social influence, reduces arousal for simple tasks, and makes individual efforts feel dispensable to the group product. Evaluation of individual contributions and establishing performance standards can help reduce social loafing.Similar to Magazine advert research (20)

Research was conducted on the album art of 5 folk rock bands - Cat Stevens, Laura Marling, Bon Iver, Mumford & Sons, and Simon & Garfunkel. Most of their album covers featured hand-drawn or painted art rather than photographs, marketing the artist as having natural talent rather than relying on technology. This style of album art matches the folk rock genre's themes of being in touch with nature.Dizzie rascal

The poster uses bold colors like red and yellow to advertise Britney Spears' album "Circus" in a circus-themed style. Her name stands out against the yellow background with red shadowing. No image is needed as her name alone sells the album. Details like the tracklist and website are kept small as the focus is on the famous artist. The circus theme and colors imply an upbeat album and match the continuity from the album cover.Magazine advertsx2

This document analyzes and summarizes four different advertisements for music albums from various indie/alternative bands.
The first ad for Kings of Leon's album uses warm, faded colors and lacks an image of the band, since their popularity no longer requires promoting their image. The second ad for John Legend & The Roots contrasts with bold colors and a black and white photo of the band performing. The third ad for Stereophonics includes the band's photo to promote a new, mainstream-oriented image. The final ad for Frankie Rose and The Outs uses bright colors and illustrations instead of the band's photo to create mystery and intrigue around an unknown new group.Digipak research folk rock 3

This document provides details about researching and analyzing Digipak album covers for a folk rock band. It summarizes the key findings from analyzing covers of 5 folk rock artists:
- Most of the album covers had hand-drawn or painted art rather than photographs, which markets the artist as having natural talent rather than relying on technology.
- The artwork often depicted the artist in a natural setting or incorporated natural elements to emphasize the folk rock theme of being connected to nature.
- Common design elements across the covers included simple fonts and layouts, handwritten text, and artwork that tied the artist's identity to nature. These elements sell the artist as introspective, mature, and focused on the music rather thanMumford and sons print analysis

This document analyzes and summarizes the packaging and promotional materials for Mumford & Sons' album "Sigh No More". It discusses how the faded color scheme of the digipak suggests their music deals with real issues rather than being purely upbeat. It also notes how images of the band members in a shop window and house windows give them a humble, indie image. Font choices and natural colors used are said to fit well with folk music conventions. An advertisement with overlapping polaroid-style band photos in a field gives a vintage, humble feel consistent with their genre.Album poster analysis

The document discusses conventions in magazine design within different genres of rock music. It begins by analyzing conventions seen in the Pretty Reckless magazine within the alternative rock genre, and comparing them to conventions found in indie magazines. It then discusses how analyzing these magazines helped develop an understanding of how to analyze still images and what makes them effective. The document goes on to discuss the design process for creating fake album artwork, advertisements, and other materials for an imaginary alternative rock artist named Daisy Jessop. It references researching real examples from bands like Nirvana, Arctic Monkeys, and The Pretty Reckless to incorporate genre conventions into the designs.Digipak research folk rock

The document provides information about designing a digipak for a folk rock album. It discusses the key characteristics of digipaks, including their book-style design which protects CDs. It also analyzes the album art and designs of five folk rock bands, noting that most album covers in the genre feature hand-drawn or painted art rather than photos. This hand-drawn art markets the artist as having natural talent rather than relying on technology. Overall designs are often simple with an emphasis on connecting the artist to nature.Lady gaga rollingstone analysis

This Rolling Stone magazine cover uses a hot pink color and nude image of Lady Gaga to appeal to both male and female audiences. The primary cover line promotes an exclusive interview with Lady Gaga, while secondary lines discuss politics and music festivals. Black and grey text stands out against the white background and pink image. The magazine's fonts and layout conform to its 1960s style while still attracting new readers with controversial celebrity coverage.Digipak research folk rock nov

The document provides information about designing a digipak for a folk rock album. It discusses the research conducted on digipaks for folk rock music, which was difficult due to the genre being more popular in past decades. The research analyzed album covers from 5 bands - Cat Stevens, Laura Marling, Bon Iver, Mumford & Sons, and Simon & Garfunkel. Most of the covers had hand drawn or painted art rather than photos, marketing the artist as having natural talent rather than relying on technology.

The document analyzes the design elements of an NME magazine cover featuring Jay-Z. It summarizes that the cover is designed to draw attention to Jay-Z through the placement of elements. The masthead uses a large, blocky font in red to stand out. Kickers on the cover relate to Jay-Z and use his logo font in red. The language and terms used on the cover appeal to indie music fans and associate the magazine with rebellion through music. Black, red, and white are prominently used to connote rebellion and the music genre. Jay-Z is prominently featured as the main model, looking directly at the reader while wearing black glasses in line with his musical heritage.Music advertisement poster analysis x3

The album cover features a close-up of Rihanna's face in bold red lipstick and hair against a plain background, drawing attention to her. The font with the album name is barely noticeable against her skin and makeup tones. There is no text identifying the album or artist by name, but it is implied to be Rihanna's based on her image being the focal point.Magazine advert research
- 1. Released in small, independent record shops and on their iTunes page. Reviews by mainstream companies, connoting their now high status in the indie-folk scene. ‘Noah and the Whale’ written in capitals connoting importance. ‘The May Dolls’ in a less formal, simple font. Information about local gigs, contrasting with no information of tours on the Noah and the Whale advert. These two photographs taken as album release adverts pose both similar and different features. The Noah and the Whale magazine advert is a full page advert, whereas The May Dolls advert is a quarter page advert from the local ‘Slap’ magazine. The images have been edited so they have a desaturated, almost bleached effect, possibly created by a filter. Noah and the Whale are a large, mainstream band, which explains their use of close ups. The May Dolls do not need to use close ups as they are not signed by a major label, meaning that they can use whichever shot type they wish as they do not need to appeal to a wide audience to earn a large amount of money back.
- 2. Interesting, abstract print work includes no images of herself implying that at this time she was more about the music than her personal image. Plain, large and formal font with a slight splash of colour. Available on CD and DVD from Amazon and download from iTunes. Available on vinyl, includes free tabs and lyric book. These two magazine adverts are from the same artist but with a few years between them. I thought it was excellent example of how the success of a small, unheard of indie-folk artist has an effect on their advertising. The more mainstream the magazine, the more mainstream the adverts will appear. As Laura Marling has increased in popularity, her style has completely changed from a homemade, hand drawn style featuring interesting print work to mainstream photo shoots and fonts. This reinforces my ideas that mainstream indie-folk artists typically use capitals with bold, simple fonts while less mainstream indie-folk artists take a more original approach by making their fonts look as thought they are hand written and handmade alike their music.
- 3. In this advert we see Mumford and Sons using the same font to display their band name as they do in all mediums. This font and ‘&’ sign have become a logo for the band which is recognisable to anyone who has glanced at it before. This magazine advert is fairly unconventional within the indie-folk genre as the images used do not feature anywhere in the Sigh No More digipacks. Usually the images from the digipack will be the same, if not similar, to the ones used for advertising . The photographs taken for the CD advertisement for the Mumford and Sons display mid-shots of each of the band members with their instruments which is to imply that making music is what they are passionate about. Yet the review underneath by NME, a mainstream magazine, could connote that their music has also become more mainstream due to increasing popularity. In contrast with this, Ben Howard’s quarter page advert for his debut album includes no reviews or information about record labels but instead an iTunes symbol, implying that if people want to listen to his music then they should listen to and make up their own opinions of it themselves.
