We have decided to keep the same or very similar typography to the typography seen on Bastille products and advertisements as the font, mainly the triangle logo for the letter 'a' is iconic to the band and is part of the band image. The colour is something I also haven't decided on yet but the colour will be contrasting to the image colours to make it stand out more clearly.
Placement of the titles is something that I need to consider in more detail as I have not yet looked at whether including reviews of the album would work in this format and this may mean that some of the writing may need to be moved around.
The image is a screenshot taken from our footage from the music video.The mise-en-scene is representational of the idea of escape and leaving usual settings so the message of the song could be inferred from this image as well as the style of music as this genre of music is fairly relaxed and doesn't connote particularly urban location.
I decided the image with the cat mask was more interesting and appealing than a simple image without it. It creates interest that may appeal to someone who sees the advert and makes the image stand out a little more with the unusual image. It is also representational of the artist and includes the concept of being present yet absent as the character who is representing the artist is clearly the main feature of the image but the mask covers his face also makes him absent. This is an extension of the star image, connoting simple but different and unusual music or as having a twist to the artist that makes them stand out.
The advert will probably run in a music magazine such as NME, Q, or MTV Magazine maybe as an A4 print
I like this a lot as it is a very interesting image as the use of rule of thirds works in this picture. On the other hand, I think that the resolution could have been better as it looks slightly unfocused.
