Magazine advert analysis 1
Florence and the Machine
Florence and the Machine are an indie-pop band.
Although this is the case, this particular magazine advert challenges the standard conventions of indie-pop genre magazine adverts because there is no natural location shown in the background, and there is no review or rating of the artist's album on the front cover, which is unusual.
However, this magazine advert also conforms to the indie-pop genre in some aspects as well, as there are long vines with flowers on them which the artist is wearing (as flowers would normally be seen in indie-pop music videos and digi-paks) and a bold font in capital letters in bright red, white and black, which are flashy colours that are normally seen in magzine adverts of this particular genre.
As with standard magazine adverts, the bar code and the price of the magazine, as well as a big image showing the music artist, can be seen clearly in this magazine advert, as well as a web address, the company logo (Motown), and the name of the magazine (New Musical Express).
