CD Cover and Ad Analysis

Magazine Ad and CD Cover – Compare and Contrast

Demi Lovato – Unbroken

This advert is capable of catching audiences due to the difference in the colours. With the contrast its more likely to appeal to more people, especially as there’s red writing on a nude and white background, it makes it stand out more to those looking at it.

The use of dark colours on a light background might relate to the name of the album itself with it being called Unbroken, the use of dark colours within her hair, on her lips and the writing means that she is bold and strong as she shines through everything, because the background for the writing is nude and there is a light sepia effect on the picture this might give off the idea that she is still pure and happy while being seen as strong and bold, therefor she is ‘Unbroken’.

The title of the album isn’t that easy to spot as It’s small and in the corner, however the artist is the most easiest to notice as nearly every word on the album is a different style of writing, meaning your eyes straight away go to the writing. Under the picture of the album it appears again the name of the album and the artist, in the same style, because it’s repeated several times this means you focus on it more. It states on the advert who is included in the track, this can draw other fans of those artists to the album as its attracting a newer audience.

The album is laid out the same way as the album advert, one of the only noticeable differences would simply be it doesn’t include who would be on the track collaborating with the artist, or when the album would be in stores, which according to the advert would be now as it would have been a while since the album would have been released. All in all, the album isn’t much different to the album advert itself.
