4. Canon magazine covers
After researching both canon campaigns and canon magazine covers, I have
found that canon usually uses one focal image in their promotional material
with the rest of the product then based on the theme of the image such as
using a similar colour scheme throughout the product. As I am making this
promotional material for canon, I will use this same concept to allow for it to
seamlessly blend into existing canon products. This approach will also allow
for the product to remain coherent throughout in order for it to be
aesthetically pleasing for the intended target audience to look at hopefully
make it more engaging for them.

14. Analysis of flat plan
The magazine front cover uses a consistent colour scheme of sunset warm tones primarily red orange
and yellow. The cover uses the same layout of existing canon magazines maintaining the continuity of
the brand. The magazine also references social media this is to hopefully engage the audience as
through my research this age group is the biggest consumer of social media. The front cover also
advertises the canon Zoemini S2 a pocket-sized travel camera and when asked the audience said that
when they think of journeys they think of travel or adventure making it the perfect camera to take with
you as it states, "Take your selfies up a gear with a pocket-sized camera printer, complete with
mirror, ring-light, remote shutter and live view." I made sure to also include in my plan the strapline that
most canon magazines include advertising free products/gifts this is to not only maintain magazine and
brand continuity, but it also engages the reader making them think that they are getting more for their
money making it a value magazine this is also the case for the bottom left-hand corner of the magazine
where free videos are advertised which also makes the audience think that the magazine is value for
money.

REVIEW
16. Analysis of flat plan
For my advertorial I used the same colour scheme as the magazine front cover this allowed
for product similarity making it easier for the audience to relate the advertorial to the front
cover. I have also included social media tips and tricks to try to connect the audience as it is
proven that for this age range social media engagement is at its highest level therefore it
will actively engage the audience making them more likely to engage with canon as a brand
as they will feel as though their interests are being recognised and personalised to the
consumer establishing a strong company and consumer connection. The theme for this
campaign was journeys and therefore the first thing I thought of was going on a journey
and travelling somewhere and based on my research that is also what the audience most
identified with when asked what they thought of when they thought of journeys therefore
using this theme for my campaign allows for the audience to be able to understand the
theme of the campaign easily.
