dvd ad and review

This design was was for a DVD ad and review to go into the magazine. the whole purpose of the page is to inform people about a promo DVD. The whole layout I decided to use the film to go with it being a DVD. the colors I chose were to match with the DVD cover to avoid using too many colors which might clash. The quote on the side is just a snippet summrising what the DVD is basically about. Its in italics obviously to put more emphasis and differentiate it from the body copy. the body copy is in blue because I chose to work with different shades of blue instead of having black or white for the text and of course it's still legible.
I believe it's a successful design because the DVD image is quote big and clear and the type flows and gels with the whole design.
