Analysis of Katy Perry’s Album
Magazine Advert
The artist’s name is written in the biggest font on the advert. The font used is the font which is used for all Katy Perry’s products.
This makes it recognisable the audience. The bright pink colour stands out from the rest of
the writing and images on the poster.
The image is very large and takes over the whole advert. The setting of the image is the same setting as the one
on the album cover which will make the album recognisable to people who have seen the poster.
A small image of the album cover is shown on the poster so it can be recognisable
to the audience.
Very little information is
presented at the bottom making
the viewers want to read it more.
The name of her hit new single is written on the
advert to attract viewers.
The white writing stands out from the rest of the
poster. The release date is written in a bold
writing which makes it stand
out.
The artist’s website written in a small font for
ways to buy the album and or find out more about the
band.
The garden setting and costume the artist is wearing is quite girly. This suggests her target audience is for
mainly females. The pink and purple colours she is wearing also supports
this idea.
The position the artist is
standing in the quite revealing costume she is in could attract
the male audience and also make the advert stand
out.
Using the image of the artist as a large part of the advert makes it
stand out to people who
recognise the artist. It also
shows the identify of the
artist to people who may have heard the song but not see the
artist.
The artist is looking straight at the camera which creates a direct address to the audience and
making the audience feel like the artist is personally selling them the
album.
