This ad works really nicely. First, the colors really catch my eye. The deep purple- bluish background looks really clean with the white type. The background also looks great with the CD cover as that is purple and pinkish. The ad is targeting artists, specifically musicians, so these bright colors can help draw them to your ad in the first place. They would probably want something like your ad that also pops with color. The ad might benefit from shortening the sentences a little, but overall, it does a great job in getting the idea across that you are the easiest way to get an album cover. I like the use of space with the cover being tilted to the side and words surrounding it. It helps the reading look nice with the photo. The website plug at the bottom is genius also, because if you want your process to be easy, so does the website URL! You can’t claim to be the easiest and have to search up something complex. It should be as easy as 1-2-3. You did a really great job here! I overall am a fan of your advertisement and I think it successfully targets musicians that need cover work.
Hi Cheska! I like the album cover of your ad, the purple colors you chose are pretty harmonious. This looks simple and straightforward, which is ads should be so they won’t make people skip it. However, I would suggest adding more details (a specific art style like Memphis or any popular trending style) in the background to make it more catchy. If you’re given more time, I think you can try other mockups that have better lighting, shadow, or layout. Your three-sentence content below the album is great, just the last sentence doesn’t really match the first two. You can write “Visit… .com for more detail!” or a better sentence than my suggestion. Overall, you did a nice job with this graphic ad and I love its simplicity a lot!
This service is such a wise choice. I believe there are lots of independent artists on the Internet who would definitely need it to save their time. Our current online society allows people to freely create and share their artworks. on multiple platforms. Yet, they are absolutely busy producing tracks for their album themselves while trying to keep their work-life balance. This website will be very helpful for these independent artists and encourage them to keep being creative. I haven’t thought about involving in the audio production career, but I’m taking an electronic music class this semester and I may consider this website on that occasion.
Hello Cheska! I really like the look of this ad. Its eye catching and gets straight to the point. However it leaves me wanting more details with a text box. It can still be simple. I just want to see a look at what more it offers. Vinyls? Digital Albums? Discs? Simple prices or a discount would be more incising since this is probably going to be an ad on the side of a music-related site. This also works really well as an Instagram ad as (if I was into music) I would see and immediately be interested. In that case however, You don’t need the site there, just have the ad link to your site.
