We have been looking at ideas for our promotional poster over the past couple of weeks. We have come across many various types of poster, some involving no imagery but just writing like the Sex Pistols: Never Mind The Bollocks poster, and some involving purely a photographic image with the album name and release date upon it like the Arctic Monekys album promotional poster for 'Who the Fuck are the Arctic Monkeys'.
We however have decided to go with as mixture of both of these ideas. We also decided to have a different photo for our promotional poster tahn we do for our album cover, this is because we all felt that the Spanning three borders album cover would become far too common and would begin to annoy members of the potential audience if they saw it everywhere. Therefore, we have decided to go for a photo of the band in a V shape with the lead singer at the forefront with his arms extended to represent Da Vinci's man on the front cover of the album. We have included the release date at the bottom of the poster. It will be the 31st of October 2012, this is because we feel that our video might come across quite scary and therefore we want to release it Halloween time. In the top left corner we have a sticker saying 'Includes the exclusive release of Feeling Good'. This is to promote the our song further, and also so that people who have heard that song would want to buy the whole album. In the top right corner we have the facebook, myspace and twitter sign to show that the band can be followed on all three of these networking sites. Here is a rough draft of our promotional poster:
