As Jack was creating the digipak, it was my job to create the poster that would advertise the album. I used Microsoft Publisher to create the poster, as my skills with Photoshop aren't all that great. So, take a look below at the poster which advertises James Thompson's brand new album 'Wasted Love'.

Firstly, notice how the only colour i have used is in the bottom corners of the poster, with the MC Productions Logo and the Twitter, Facebook and Youtube advertisements This is because I wanted to keep the psoter as neutral as possible, and I didn't really want it to stand out a huge amount. So in keeping with the Michael Buble convention of a lot of black and white, I decided to make the image of myself black and white and all of the text in just white.
In terms of the photo, it was one that we took on Brighton Pier, with me standing up against the white wall. I'm directly addressing the audience, which keeps with the theme of me making a performance based product/video. I also decided to make the text of 'James Thompson' the largest as I think it's the thing people want to know the most, as people walking past the poster in a train station or down a high street would see the picture of myself which they would know very well (as they would with Michael Buble) and the name of the artist as well, so they no straight away who it's for. This would hopefully make them stop and read more information on the poster.
Lastly, the consumer can find out more information about the artist and the album by going onto the website, the Twitter page, Facebook page or Youtube page. Overall I think this is a very simple yet effective poster which I am very happy with. The music video is very nearly done and will be uploaded on YouTube very soon.
