Magazine Advertisment, First Version

Here is the first version of my magazine advertisment. Once again, I have tryed to follow some of the conventions of my genre such as using the black and white colour scheme. In order to ensure that the magazine advert looks as proffessional as possible, I have looked at a number of existing magazine adverts and the way in which they are presented so that it is as effective as possible. I have used Adobe Fireworks to manipulate the image and change the brightness and contrast, as well as to create the text with effects such as the glow. All in all, I am happy with the magazine advert and feel that if included in a real magazine, would appeal to the target audience.
