Phoenix Poster Analysis

A simple but effective design that clearly tells

us who the group/ band is (in this case it is

Phoenix’) and uses basic imagery in an

effective way. Plane grey background

deliberately used to emphasis the details of

the poster making them standout; features

such as the title take advantage of this well.

Bold Font in white used to standout against

the grey back grown emphasising the key part

of the poster, the group/ bands name. The

band wanted to connect to ‘something sweet’

(Same as the title to one of their songs), so to

relate to it they have used an image of a

peach, a sweet fruit. The key information is

again in a bold white font purposely done to

be noticeable but so over powering that is

draws the eye away from the image or the

title. Record labels placed at the bottom of the

poster, purposely made small but in white so it

still stands out but not to the extent that is

distracting form the rest of the poster; the

posters purpose is to advertise the Band not

the recording company. Placed at the very

bottom of the poster, almost off the page, are

the sponsors of the band and tour.
