Advert Analysis


the gorillaz focus on the cartoony effects as their band image and as a result of this the plastic beach album cover is in cartoon its the world of the gorillaz.

Advert Analysis


The Stereophonics look Calm and carry on album cover shows , the water rising, yet they don't care they are going to "keep calm and carry on" they look nice and relaxed to suite the mood of the album

Email request for Fall Out Boy-I Don't Care

target audience

The target audiance i am trying to aim for will be for early to late teens. I am chosing this audiance becasue there is a lot of different music types that aims at them and would fit perfectly. The music genre we have chosen is Emo, the basic image of and emo is to do with skinny jeans, band t shirts, hoodies, his is a plain dress sense.

typical conventions of fall out boy\emo music

Fall out boys music, image and persona has changed over the past 8 years, the typical emo convention has been fluent throughout.
For example in one of the bands first music videos 'a little less sixteen candles a little
more touch me' the band wear dark colored tight clothes,this is a typical convention
of emo bands and has almost became a calling card for the band.
The band also experiment with unique, individual hairstyles, i believe they do this to get a reaction out of people and to cause controversy, which after all is what emo is all about.
The band has changed quiet a lot the past few years, they seem to have grown in maturity.

band image

Band Image Hairstyles-Traditional band hairstyles are long and uncontrolled, however pop/punk hair is the exception, most styles very in thickness and length but normally consist of choppy layers, a sweeping fringe and the odd spike or two, these elements are sometimes combined with brightly coloured highlights to give a rebellious look to the style.

Body-Although there is no rule on what to wear for the pop/punk genre I believe that plain clothes with not much colour in them would suit best, such as black, white, grey, dark purple etc these should be the primary colours and the more brighter colours such as red, blue, yellow etc should ideally be secondary colours.

Jeans- In most cases dark skinny jeans would be the obvious choice however there are alternatives to these such as coloured or patterned skinny jeans as well as baggy jeans or possibly shorts.

Shoes-Most band wear well known alternative makes such as converse, vans, DC’s etc, these makes would probably work best for creating an alternative look
