Green Day: Wake Me Up When September Ends
This advertisements image breaks convention completely, its slightly blurred and shows the main singer of green day in motion- as if the image is a still from when Green Day were performing, although I am not keen on the angle- I feel that it shows the bands image off as the main singer is seen to be wearing black, heavy eyeliner and black, spiky hair.
The font itself across the top half of the page is unconventional, this is as the font takes up more room than the image of the music artist, although it shows off the name of the band and promotes them well, I think that I would prefer a bigger image of the artist. I also like the use of the font for "Wake Me Up When September Ends" this is as it looks hand drawn and adds a personal touch to the poster. I also like the use of the red and white font, they contrast each other and connote danger against purity- this suggests the nature of the band- this is as it is punky- but still listened to by lots of young people.
Finally, I like the idea of the promotion across the bottom, with the new singles and the album- it makes fans know what the band are doing and when, it creates a fan base for the new album- meaning that the band would get more money back from the promotion.
Within the advertisement, I liked the use of promotion, this is as it makes the fan base known of the new songs and the album- it creates a fandom around the songs and albums.
