Please comment if you have any views that you want to share with myself or the group about the music video

Band Album Poster

Here is our finished poster, this poster is simple and with simple colours. the poster was created to represent the humbleness and simplicity of the band as a whole. The poster we originally created was too flashy and would typically be used for a hip hop band which we are not we wanted to a create a simple poster with a simple colour scheme that people can look at with a deeper meaning.

The poster is a type of homage to the music poster of the band The Buggles who created the poster below for their album "Video Killed the Radio-star" by doing this we are adding an element of post modernism into the coursework which is something we are looking at for the flip side of this Unit. By adding this element to the poster we are creating a deeper level and meaning to our poster rather than leaving it bland and uninteresting.

The poster is symbolical as it shows a cartoon style faces of our two band members myself and Jack, as these cut outs are what our band members are most typical seen at by people, as people see jack with his medium length hair and his beard without taking notice of his eyes or any other feature, the guitar is placed in front of him to show what matters most to him, same with the microphone as it is directly in front of my face as if i was singing but with no facial features to actually do so. The text located on the poster is simple as to not draw attention away from the band but still in the audiences attention due to the colour red being used as red is a colour that is transferred very quickly by the brain.
