What Have I Learnt

From my research at looking at different advertisements music albums, I have learnt that in order to have an effective advertisement, I need to sponsor and keep the limelight on the artist (using Goodwin's Theory) as the portrayal of the artist is vital in whether or not the audience portrays the advert as a positive or negative form of promotion.

Also, from looking at other magazine adverts , I came to the sudden realisation that the form of advertising is generally using the main cover for the Digi Pack - thus I could use my album cover whilst changing just a few aspects to make it look more appealing to a wider audience.
