Looking at Indie Adverts - The Ting Tings


The background is a very bright red colour which will grab the readers attention. It especially stands out against the black and white writing as they make the poster quite dull. The band's name 'The Ting Tings' is in a bright baby blue colour which bounces off against the bright red and the white catching the viewer's attention and making them especially aware of the band who is performing. The band members themselves are in black and white which puts less emphasise on them. This is strange as normally the band members would normally be emphasised more instead of less.

The writing is quite bold and in capital letters which show the viewer that this is important or a big event. The use of capitals makes people think of something urgent so they will consider this gig to be important and it will be considered as a massive event. The simplistic writing style will show the indie genre which shows the calm and relaxed theme which could be linked to the music.

The band members have half of their faces cut off. This causes mystery to them and therefore fans will be more willing to go to their gig as it causes curiosity. Their expressions are very calm and tranquile much like the indie genre therefore linking the band to the music a little bit more.
