First Analysis of Music Magazine Double Page Spread



Here is my first analysis of a music magazine double page spread, I have taken this double page spread from the NME music magazine. It includes the band "The Teenagers" and goes across the two pages with an image of the band and texts.


Language:
This NME music magazines double page spread it is published weekly inside the magazine. The masthead on this double page spread is within the center of the page more than either of the sides it has been created in black bold text, but then to give it that extra hint of eye catching affect it has a blue outer glow and stroke on to it. The left of the page contains a huge image which takes up more than half the double page spread, then towards the right of the image is text about the band and next to that is a heading with lots of text stating "everyones talking about"..
The top left of the page contains a blue background square with white bold text saying RADAR, this must be iconic to the band or the genre of music it is in, in some sort of way.
Also above the masthead there is a small puff which states NME LOVES, then the masthead comes in THE TEENAGERS, this could make people think they are a big and famous and really good band if NME say they love them.
