Indie Rock Poster Analysis

After going into detail of two Indie Rock Band posters, harry and I also looked at these posters to see if we can spot any conventions for the genre.


























Some conventions that can be see throughout all or most of these posters are:
-The band name is always the biggest text and the highest up the poster.
-The image takes up the whole background and is also the main image of the album/digipak.
-The image is not necessarily of the band itself.
-Promotes the music more than the band image.
-Album name comes second to the band.
-Some have themes.



Overall we can take into account these conventions so that our poster will be similar to those in it's genre "Indie Rock". This will then help us to draw in our target audience.

  1. You have identified some interesting conventions here across this sample of similar bands/artists to your own chosen band. This should prove invaluable when you produce your own magazine advert. Well done!
