What type of shot should the image of the singer be on the poster?

Here we asked participants what type of shot they thought would be most appropriate. The shot would be of the singer on a poster. According to our results it was clear that the mid shot of the upper half of her body was the most popular and the full length shot was the second most popular answer. This is probably because these shots are typically the standard shots used in all posters. Therefore by using one of these shots our poster would appear more realistic. As a result, we will take pictures of the singer in both shots and compare when creating our poster to see which one is more ideal and makes our poster look more realistic.

How much writing should feature on the poster? Put a tally mark next to which one, with 1 being very minimal and 3 being a lot of writing

Here we asked participants how much writing in terms of quantity should be in a poster. According to our results it was clear that participants felt that the poster should have a minimal to moderate amount of writing and that the poster shouldn’t feature too much writing as no one stated that there should be a lot of writing. This is probably because too much writing can be distracting and take the focus away from the main area that needs attention. As a result, we will take this into account and ensure that the poster is not too informative and has a moderate amount of text.

What text should be featured on the poster? Put a tally next to any that you think are

important.

Here we asked participants in regards to what should be actually written in terms of the content. According to our results it was clear that the name of the singer had to definitely be included. The record company logo, date and name of the album were also other popular selections. These choices were popular because typically in a poster advertising a singer’s new song all posters include this type of information which makes our poster appear more realistic. However, as we will be taking into account the results from the previous question we will decide on the most appropriate and necessary pieces of information and include them.

What colours best suit the pop genre, which is the genre that our artists songs feature within?

Here we asked participants what colour they thought was most suitable to be used in a poster. According to our results it was clear that participants felt that the poster should include very vivid bold colours and we should avoid very pale, dull, pastel colours. Vivid colours are likely to be popular because the poster needs to be eye catching and if pastel colours are used this may not be achieved. As a result, we will take this into account and ensure that the poster is brightly coloured and stands out and as much as possible we will try to avoid pastel colours.
