Toby Keith Magazine Advert

This is a really simple advert with a great feel to it. Both imagery and photos are well used to get across the genre.

Firstly the typography is well suited to a country genre it is in a yellow country like colour with the cowboy type font. It is the masthead on the advert. The type says the name of the artist which captures the audience’s attention. The other subheadings are also in the same yellow font. It is a really good example of repetition. Details are in white which is every other heading. This is quite striking but is also a professional way of laying out the advert. This is a tour advert but it also includes the album. The photo in the background is a good example of what country is like and the mise en scene of the genre. The photo is in black and white which mirrors the way the text is coloured. I have learnt that looking through the magazines in which I found my adverts, that they all seem to be half a page adverts. Tours tend to be a whole A4 page but album launches are usually a little reminder of the release on an advert page.
