Marina and The Diamonds: Advert Analysis

When analysing this Marina and the Diamonds poster the use of black and white is very effective as it shows that there is a dark side within the band, although the poster is mainly white which portrays that they are more good than bad, the grainy effect also says different. The use of colour around the band name shows that the bands itself are soft and smooth but their storylines may differ and be dark, sinister unlike themselves. The use of bold black makes the title stand out; it’s the first things your eyes draw to. Therefore the readers know exactly who the poster is about within seconds.  The poster is very informative but with little writing which makes it very appealing the audience as they don’t have to read much to understand what it’s about. Also that all the relative inform action is in bold and your eyes are automatically drawn because of that. From this poster we will be using the light and dark colouring to suggest that our band itself is soft but storylines are sinister. Also we will use the use of the grainy so portray this in a different way. We will use the use of the bold title and place it in the centre so our audience’s eyes are drawn straightaway. The minimal information is appealing as it gives the audience the key information without having the read properly because of the use of bold lettering, we will use this to simplify things for our target audience and highlight the key features to kep it interesting and on point.
