Introduction


My name is Hollee Gascoigne, currently in year 13. I am studying Media at A-level after having chosen it and completed an AS in year 12 at a B grade.

I am hoping to improve this year and secure an A grade within my entire media A-level.

It was suggested to me by one of my peers that I add the Spotify logo and put, 'now available on' just before the logo. However instead of having it in black and white like the other social media logos, I thought it would add more of a pop of colour to the advert if the logo was the signature green, yet only subtly as the logo is smaller in scale compared to that of the rest of the information presented. I took the image below from google, of the Spotify logo to use within the magazine advert. Then later added the 'also available on' using the same 'Arial' font from photoshop that was used for the information about the tracks. Therefore meaning I ended up with the magazine advert you can see below.
