Sia Tour Poster

This is the concert advertisement poster for the artist Sia. Through the colouring and general mise-en-scene, the audience can instantly see that this is a female dominated artist, and could be a female dominated concert. The main artist, Sia, is featured in a medium close up image centred in the middle of the poster. By doing this, the audience is instantly drawn to the artist and is able to easily recognise her, thus advertising her work. Upon this, the mise-en-scene surrounding her (i.e. the quirky items placed on her face) are used in this way to further draw attention onto the artist, connecting the advertisement for a concert to her work. The concert details (amongst other details such as the album release date) are placed in the right hand side corner in a small (probably size 6) font to draw more attention onto the artist. This may be because your typical audience would focus more on the aesthetic details on the poster, as opposed to the formalities. The concerts tour name, aswell as the artists name is placed high above the poster in a large font, with the artists name placed with an unusual and colourful font to further draw more attention to her and her work. By making both titles at the top in a large font, the audience is instantly drawn to the title. This is complimented through a general lack of mise-en-scene, allowing the audience to only focus on the main aspects of the poster.
