Poster analysis


This album release is for Greendays 'American idiot album'. This advertisment features the same image which is on the American idiot albun which is clearly making a link between both products resulting it been a recognisable product to the audience. The colour sceme for this advertisement features black white and red. I think the red looks really effective against the darkness of black and looks like its connoting something dangerous and exciting. The bands name is featured in the upper left hand corner in an uppercase large font, instantally making it stand out to the audience. Underneath the bands name their is the album title, this is in the same font as the band name but however in lower case form, a smaller font and in red instead of white. The main image is an animation of a hand with a heartogram inside of it, I think looks really effective and offers a different and unique aproach to the album advertisement and follows the gnere of the band Greenday which is punk rock. In the bottom left hand corner there is also a small image of the label in which the band is signed to. Overall the poster ususes very simplistic ideas that together work really well in promoting and selling their album.
