Developing final design for mag advert
Below is my final design developments, advertising the band's album, I mentioned the tour begins in May (this year) and where the audience can consume the music and find more information online. This always the advert to dominantly promote the debut album but also (minorly) the tour.
The magazines which I would advertise the band in are NME and 'Outline'. NME is a magazine based on the music industry, giving their audience latest news on the latest music. The magazine is very popular, released weekly in the UK. Outline is a free magazine, promoting tours/gigs and albums for un-signed artists/bands. A combination of both magazine advertisements, the audience will be able to either afford the price of NME or if not, pick up the free Outline magazine.
The "Album out Now" option was one I considered but decided not to use as I felt it was better to use a bold date, adding a statement to the advert.
The final design has a different font used for this particular piece of information. The "brush" styled font found from dafont.com appeared too informal so I used another more formal one from the website.

Advert ideas
These ideas are rough sketches to quickly explore possible designs which could work better. The initial brief was flexible between choosing to market a tour/gig or the digipak. However, the magazine advert in fact had to market predominantly the album release.
The first image shows how I was keen to use illustrations of wolves, linking the bands name ("The Wild Wolves) and the visuals. A quirky one was where some wolf couples were sitting in cars, looking at a screen, inspired by outdoor cinemas, which could have had either the tour dates (as initially thought) or the album release details. The other designs weren't particular strong as they were quick doodles.

The next two images are more colourful and developed than the previous. I chose to experiment with decorative letters, coloured card and glitter but it looked very unprofessional. Therefore I next tried some more illustrations and use of colour. Folk leaflets/adverts can often be linked to rural and natural locations so I chose to draw a country-side theme. It gives a simple idea of what the advert could have looked like but I would have developed and refined it further if I chose it as my final design.
