Magazine Advert - Kelly Rowland

Although this advert isnt mainly based on her album is it a little about her life which music play a huge factor in.

This is the first double page spread i have looked at the analyse, i prefer this look as it gives the impression that they are more famous or well known, they are more important than other artists on single pages and over all showsa higher profile. I am definately going to use this on my final magazine advert.

The pale blue works really well as the background colour as it is so bright, the image and the text also bounces off of it being so noticable to the readers. The colour also works well with Kelly Rowlands skin tone. The black colour of the text although is really thin still stands out and acts as a begining to the little paragraphs below it, drawing the viewers eyes to read on.

The main image shows that the artist is a diva by the pose she is making, with the soft look from her eyes and  leening forwards to the camera lense. As we dont see the rest of the artists body it is a mid-shot if her curled up giving a vunerable look. This is a typical pose which doesnt support the male gaze and this is the exact loo and feel i want to use for my magazine advert.

Although there is alot of space around the edges and the page is rather bare, the colour makes it look alright as the main details are clearly shown being the image and the text in the middle of the page. maybe a little more is needed on the page especially as it is a double page spread. However little text, and simplicity is a typical convention of a magazine advert.
