Conventions - Magazine Advertisements

I looked at a few magazine advertisements to check for any motifs and conventions that appear in the magazine advertisements.

Magazine Advertisements i looked at:

- Raekwon OBFCL2
- Foo FIghters Greatest Hits
- Nirvana Live at Reading
- Stereophonics Keep Calm and Carry On
- Killers Live album

Conventions:

- Release Date on 3 of the advertisements.
- In what form you can buy the albums e.g. CD - Download - DVD.
- Has the artist on the cover of the advertisement and shows the album cover.
- Artist's website at the bottom of the advertisement.
- Where you can buy the album e.g. HMV.
- Record label at the bottom of the advertisement.

Opening Scene - Unfinished Draft

Scene starts with extreme close up from the side showing a man sitting on a bench and visibly distressed and looking quite rough. As the track starts with the drum solo many cuts are made between the lead actor and the drummer playing his solo. Scene then switches to the band playing track - before lead singer is about to do his vocals a shot of him is shown approaching the mic with a close-up of his face and as the he starts singing the track switches to the narrative with lead actor shown to be walking around with no destination which links to the lyrics of "been mistreated baby - Ive been through town".
