This magazine advert includes lots of promotional information. However it has been designed in a way to make the powerful image clearly visible and for the advert to not appear cluttered or over whelming. This appeals to the audience as the image is very eye catching and then the next thing that you see is the text. The clear layout of the text makes the reader more likely to be engaged and read it all as it is enough to spark interest but doesn't over crowd the page.

There is synergy between the magazine advert and album covers, with the music video of someone like you. This is one of the biggest singles that was released before this album. There is similar shots of close ups of Adele showing her sadness and emotion of the song, as there are on the covers. She also has her signature hair and makeup look throughout this video,which she then became very recognized for on the 21 promotional imagery. Lastly, the most obvious synergy is the continuation of the black and white in the music video, which makes the audience create visual links with the images shown above.
Categories of music video Performance based Some other examples of performance based music videos: Bloc Party - Two more years Lady Gaga - Perfect Illusion - using shots of her performing and an audience Narrative based Some other examples of narrative music videos: Katy Perry - Last Friday night Taylor Swift - You belong with me Concept based Other concept music videos: Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication - a concept based around a video game animation.
How effective is the combination of your main product & ancillary texts? How these 3 products link? Video Effect on the audience? The main thing I was aiming for the audience to understand from these 3 products was the strong way they all linked together, allowing the artist's image to carry through into the music video as well. From the answers above from my audience research I think it is clear that they did feel the effect of how the artist was representing his genre and his image throughout. From the video above, I have shown how the video also links to this, and from my research and questionnaire of the video, the audience can see this. In the questionnaire 80% said there was a strong representation and 75% said there was enough performance scenes, which involved the key prop of a guitar. To me this shows the audience understood what I was trying to create in this video. Digipaks in planning: http://j...
