ASA- following the advertising standards agency regulations I will not be allowed advertise anything misleading to an audience. The images I am using show off the theme of Mod Fest and are conventions of Mod Culture which fits in with what the festival is trying to create, so it is not misleading to an audience. My advertisements do not promote use of alcohol even though it may be consumed at the event.

LO4- Production Schedule




I will start marketing and advertising my festival on June 1st. As my festival begins towards the end of August this will be enough time to advertise my festival and get the word out there. I will start selling tickets on July 15th, this is so there is enough time to advertise the festival, and plenty of time to buy tickets before the festival starts. I will start selling t-shirts on August 4th, this gives people time to buy the t-shirts who are going to the festival and if people wear them before it is a good form of advertisement.

LO3-Presentation Feedback

After pitching Ian Anderson said that my ideas were solid and locked down. He said that my poster looked professional and he wouldn't know it was a students work if he saw it, but it could be slightly improved. He also said that next time I need to step out of my comfort zone, and when designing a new concept do something you're not used to.

LO1- Analysing existing graphic design work, Rimmel London



Purpose: The purpose of the Rimmel London Apocalips campaign is to advertise the product to the audience, so that they buy it.

Format: The ways in which this campaign advertises is through posters and billboards, which will be placed in various places in different cities around the UK. There is also tv adverts which would have been broadcasted on different channels.

Content: there isn't a lot of information on the poster, all it contains is the Rimmel London logo, the product, and Kate Moss. This connotes that they wanted to keep the full focus on them three so that it makes the icon and product stand out to the viewer. There is a lot of white space on the poster, yet again to keep the attention on what they are trying to sell. The house style of the campaign manly focusses on the colour scheme which consists of purple, red and pink, as they are the colours of lipsticks they are trying to sell, and connotes a feminine vibe. The font is sans serif which keeps the campaign modern.

Style: the style of the Rimmel London apocalips campaign is very artsy, as they use paint strokes which are lipstick marks to create the Union Jack. It is also very modern as the colours are very bold and bright and this connotes positivity and femininity.

Layout: the layout of the campaign poster is very simple, this is because it doesn't contain a lot of information. The only information which is in the poster is the brand name, the star icon and the product itself. The star icon is placed in the centre of the poster as she is the main focus. This keeps the attention on her as the poster is not cluttered.

Target Audience: The target audience of this campaign is females between the ages of 16-30, this is because it is mostly women who use and buy these products. The age is because this is the age that usually wear the new trendy products. The social grading would be ABC1 as they would have a large disposable to spend on their products. 

Regulatory bodies: There is no offensive material on this poster that could cause any harm to the viewer. The Rimmel logo on the campaign is to make sure the company is branded and can not be copyrighted.

LO1- Analysing existing graphic design work, Leeds Fest

























Purpose: The purpose of this poster is to advertise Leeds/Reading Fest to the public, so that more of the public buy the tickets for the events and they gain a profit.

Format: The format of this poster varies as it is advertised in many places. For example posters in city centres and around town, website banners and billboards.

Content: This poster contains information about the event. It includes which acts are headlining the event, the dates of the event and which acts are on which dates. On this poster there is not a lot of white space as the flyer is filled with information. The house style of this flyer is particularly simple, the poster only uses three colours, red, black and yellow, I think it helps the information stand out and the poster doesn't looked too cramped. The Leeds Fest information sticks to one font which is also sans serif, this connotes that the festival is very modern. However they use the fonts the artists use for their names. There is not a lot of kerning or leading in this poster, this is maybe to connote the festival is jam packed with entertainment.

Style: The style of the Leeds fest campaign is very bold. It sticks to bold colours so that it stands out to the audience. The colours connote a positive vibe as they are bright, but the red and black suggest a manly environment. This connotes that the festival would be fun but does suggest it can be quite dangerous. They use the arrows as they are well known and a symbol of Leeds fest so without even reading the name you already know it's Leeds fest.

Layout: The layout of the poster is very simple, it sticks to the columns so that the audience are able to focus on the main purpose which is the acts. They have made the logo the biggest part of the poster and put it all up one side, so that the audience know that it is Leeds fest. The layout on all advertisements for Leeds fest are fairly simple, this is so they keep to the point.

Target Audience: The target audience for Leeds Fest is males between the ages of 18-28, this is because the acts that are playing at Leeds Fest mainly reach out and relate to a male audience, the reason for this age is that you mainly associate festivals with younger adults and 18 because of alcohol sales.

Regulatory Bodies: The Advertising Standards Authority is the UK’s independent regulator of advertising across all media. There is no offensive material on this poster that could cause any harm to the viewer. It also does not promote drugs or alcohol usage, even though such events may occur at the festival.

Format: The format of this advertisement is a poster. Which was placed all around Sheffield to advertise the event. This is also advertised on websites, as banners for example.

Content: The poster doesn't have a lot of content, it only contains the name of the festival, the dates and the location. The house style of the campaign is very bold. It sticks to the colours pink, yellow and white. It makes the poster stand out in society by it being bright and colourful. The poster also appeals to both genders with the two main colours. The poster doesn't contain much white space as the patterns are covering the blank space, this is effective as it doesn't make the poster look boring, however the patterns don't make it look cluttered.

Style: The style of the campaign is very modern, as the patterns, shapes and fonts are really bold. The colour scheme connotes that the festival is fun and upbeat as the colours are bright.

Layout: The layout of the campaign is simple but very effective, they use small paragraphs of information to separate the text. This is to make sure the poster is not cluttered and is easy to read. They put the icon in the middle of the poster, this makes the poster look balanced.

Target audience: The target audience for Doc Fest is males between the ages of 20-35 with a key interest in film. They would be part of the social grade ABC1 as their disposable income would be spent on cinema tickets and DVDs.

Layout: the layout on the campaign poster is very simple. The poster is set into two columns, the first column being the name of the product and the product itself, and the second column being the brand name Chanel and the star icon.
