Panic! At The Disco Poster Analysis



Panic! At The Disco Poster Analysis

This poster has a dark feel to it as there is no bright or vibrant colours, instead there is a blue outline to the bands name and there is a pink tint over the image. The blue outline of the band name shows a masculine side to the band and also that they are quite relaxed and therefore their music is fun and young. The pink tint over the image is to give a feel of femininity and sexuality to the poster, especially seeing as the image is of very provocative women, giving a feeling that Panic! At The Disco's music will be about love and relationships, alternatively, it may also show that the band are passionate about their music and career. The font has been placed on a diagonal path, showing that the ban do not take themselves too seriously and that they are still quite childish and informal. The serif font used on the poster also reflects the font used on the single cover, thus showing intertextuality to the 'circus' theme that the band have utilized, which is therefore allowing the market to recognise the Panic! At The Disco merchandise. The leaf pattern which is acing as a border for the poster also brings some femininity to the poster as leaves and flowers are stereotypically appealing to females. The poster has been kept neutral in the target audience gender as it has both male and female selling points.
