Magazine research, Flavour

This magazine I had to obtain from school online, as my computer didn't like the website. Eitherway, I was able to access a digital copy of their magazine, including back issues which was really useful. Flavour magazine is targeted at teenagers, due ot the artist's that it includes, and the use of colours they they choose. Now onto the adverts;

As you can see, they have included some commercial albums such as "Pure Urban essentials", which is adverticed on the TV often. They also include possible unknown artists, such as the one on the right advert, and also a group which are sponsored, to support those that the magazine is targeted at.
The first advert uses a black and white ourline style of three characters, and some text to fill in the extra space, to give details for what it is about. An image of the album has been included to shwo you what it looks like when you go to look in store to buy it for example. Due to it supporting NHS with infectons and problems which teenagers are commonly getting lately. The advert targets the audience well, with not only it's sponsors, but the large image, with text beside it for an explanation.

The second advert uses simplicity; a large image of the album front cover in the middle, release date at the top, and details underneath the picture. For a commercial-based album, this is all they they need to include, and it's effective.
The third advert focuses on wanting sales. They do this by showing other albums which are available form the artist, and a quality photograph shot of the artist as the focal point of the page.
