magazine advert research

 Here are five of the magazine adverts I have been looking at to get inspiration for and I noticed many similarities.

Firstly, the main feature is the album cover itself which in most of these cases is a close up of medium close of of a figure which works well with ideas I've had for my magazine article.

Next up is the band logo which appears at the very top of the page or at the bottom of the album art in almost every example I've looked at. It seems this is a common but successful template that I will be employing into my advert. 

 The next common aspect is that the information is lay underneath the image in an appropriate colour to the main logo. This includes the album name, the release date, reviews and what it will be released on.

Green screen practice and the use of chroma key

As we are still using the silhouette as the main character in the video (just with a much lesser role to play), it is still very important to be able to create them as realistically as possible. here is some evidence of work that me and Niall have been doing to work on our skills to create the silhouette. We use the chroma key tool on Premier Pro for this.
