Analysis of magazine advert designs

Here are my three chosen Advertisements for magazines I have completed a brief analysis on each to help me with choosing my final design.

Advert for magazine

Here a few ideas for my magazine advert. I used the same font on each of the designs as this is my chosen font for the band title.

The main colour theme is black, white and red, I think the combination works well as they are complimenting colours and would stand out in a magazine page.

From my research, looking at advertisements in NME magazine, the magazine advert also includes the website of the artist/band and the several ways in which the album can be listened to. Especially with the indie genre bands more and more people are buying LP's again, therefore for my band this was also advertised.

What's more the photos on the advertisement are there to represent the band in full, 2 out of the 3 include the album cover as i feel it is quite original and stands out, what's more it suits the indie genre and it could be, potentially, a well known image.
