- 5. Aims and Objectives Theaims of the Reading poster is to advertise the festival to those who would be more likely to want to go. The colours used is red, yellow and white. These colours allow the poster to stand out while still looking professional and legitimate. The colours are vibrant and exciting, this reflects the atmosphere that the organisers at Reading festival wants to create. Each artist uses their own font and style, if that is part of their brand. For example, twenty one pilots, Dave, Bastille and others are all in their usual style, this is because they are recognised for this. Other artists like Juice Wrld, Charli XCX and Lil Uzi Vert are written in a universal, clear to read font. The poster is split into the days and stages, this can be confusing to start understanding. There are five different stages that all have different artists playing throughout the festivals weekend.

- 26. Comparison Similarities: The colours usedare the same, this keeps the consistency of the advertisements. This means that the advertisements can be linked together and shown as one united advertisement for Reading Festival. Differences: The font and style of the artists names are different. In the poster, the artists were written in their unique font and capitalisation, however, in the video advertisements the artists are written in the same font, same size, and all in block capitals. While this can make them stand out more, it can reduce the uniqueness of the artists slightly.
