OASIS - BE HERE NOW
Mise En Scene
-
The lighting in the magazine advert is very superficial and obvious that it has been edited, creating an unrealistic aesthetic feel.
-
The use of the band not being on the advert is very conventional for the indie genre.
-
The setting is a very lavish and extravagant, connoting wealth.
Camera Work
-
The use of the long shot shows the whole setting of the magazine advert emphasizing extravagance.
-
The main focus of the shot is the car sinking in the pool, this shows the reckless life of being in a rock/indie band and also that there is no care for money.
-
The fact that the band isn't shown, is very conventional for an indie/rock band, this would be something to think about for our own magazine advert.
Layout
-
The layout of the magazine advert is very simple yet effctive, the bands name is the focal point of the image
showing that they are the most important thing.
-
The album name is placed at the bottom of the advert which makes the viewers eyes glide across the whole advert.
-
The use of the sans serif font throughout the advert suggests simplicity which is then contradicted by the main image
Typography & Font
connoting extravagance.
-
The black and white colours, of the font, suggest a classic feel, but also stands out against the bright colours of the image.
