Magazine advertisement research

i have done the same as i did for the cd covers and gathered a few images from google of advertisements for band albums and gig for inspiration and ideas concerning layout:



Over all i have found that a reoccurring theme in cd cover design is the use of bold bright colours, however it appears that a combination of fewer colour is more effective and follows similar conventions of magazine editing which limits you three colours within the print. These sorts of designs would be appropriate i feel as they represent a spontaneous and creative ethic similar to the band. In addition from these album covers it is apparent that less detail is more effective, simple designs are more appealing to an audience.
