Research for Advert

I've been looking at what seems to be popular within adverts in magazines for new artists and or popular artists new albums. To me it really seems to depend on the type of music that, that artist creates.








It seems like new artist albums focus more on what the artist looks like and the key information about the new album. In short they leave the adverts as short and simple as possible with a view of the artist to make consumers more interested in what the album has to offer. If you don't see much of what is available the more likely you are to look into the information that you want, making you more interested in the artist.

I feel as though this is a reasonable approach and that I should use it to my advantage for my own artists advert as it seem the most effective to have a small amount of information. I'm not sure I want to conform the the convention of having the artists face on the advert though. I feel as though it's more interesting to try and find out what they look like and in order to do that they have to watch the music video and listen to the song. Which would give the artist more recognition.
