inspiration from music magazines

We looked at many music magazines such as Kerrang, NME, Wire etc and we found some good images that we thought we can take pictures of and use as inspiration for when we start designing a billboard/print ad.

Firstly, I really like the font for the 'rag&bone' as it looks like it's been written on a type writer. I also really like the black and white and the multiple images of the man in different positions.​​

I particularly like that this image is in the rule of thirds and we can see buildings in the background. We can do something similar as our video is going to be black and white and will be mainly focused on one person.

These images look quite mysterious and dark, especially because of the mask and the girl standing alone. It creates a depressing feeling which is also an element of our video.

These city lights look particularly good in this image and the people running. It reminds me of our video idea and the friendship between the two girls. Also there's a lot of shots of lights in our video.

I particularly like this ad because of the use of black/grey/white tones which have been used for a painting. It's suitable for our video as the protagonist likes to draw/paint and we can possible do a print ad similar to this but of something else like lights or buildings which she likes to draw.

I really like the 3D/blurry effect on this image because it's quite plain and it's made it stand out a lot more, especially with the red/blue outline. I think we can experiment on photoshopwith images of the protagonist to see how it looks.

I like that this ad is quite child like and we have an element of childhood in our video which I find suitable. I like that it has been painted with water colours to give it a subtle, grey effect.

The drawing and font on this ad is quite indie-like because of the hand written style font an the drawing of the guy in an apartment. It's very artsy and fits in with our genre.
