Above is the original image I started with, without any editing.
Above is how I decided to have to overall colour of the advertisement; with a warming yellow filter and high contrast. I feel it looks good and is very similar to indie band The Smiths' album posters. I chose to type out the artist's name in a brown 'Georgia' font (also similar to that of The Smiths) to start with.
To get the colour of the font to stand out more noticeably I copied the layer and brightened the second layer, to make it seem bolder.
About is the final text used in the poster. I did the same technique with 'the debut album' text, only this time I used italic font. I then used the same font for the rest of the text, only with different sizes and a brighter gold colour so that it stands out from the other text.
The last thing I did was put "available at:" and then the HMV.com logo. This is a convention found on all magazine advertisement's I looked at, whether it be Amazon.com or Play.com, they all had information on where to buy the album or single in question.
Final magazine advertisement:
