Conventions of an advertisement

After analysing previous album advertisements, I have created a set of conventions, which will aid the creation of my own magazine advert promoting 'The Rockweilers'. This has encouraged my ideas about the most important features of my design. Furthermore, this will hopefully emphasise the authenticity of my album advertisement.
Conventions



Although these are features which are common to album advertisements there are many more features, which are included to aid the promotion of an album, for example...
  • Shops where the album is available
  • The ratings of the album (according to music magazine eg. NME)
  • Use of play on words
  • Tour dates
  • Quotes from magazines and newspapers
  • Band Symbols
  • Merchandise
  • Whether the Album is downloadable
