Double page spread 3...

This double page spread is well laid out because the image overlaps both pages so that it is clear that their is a link between both pages. Another way which the producer has shown that there is a link between both pages is the green/yellow borderline running across the top of the pages. The colours used on the magazine are simple, they have used blue, black, yellow and white. They have purposely made the image black and white so that the quatations from interviews stand out. The language used on the double page spread is mainly informal due to the inviewed sections. The font used for the word scarier is good as it gives the affect of the person beings big and loud. Each sperate paragraph of the text begins in yellow so that it is clear to the reader when they are going to go on to a different subject. The pages has no main title which is different for a double page spread. I think that this is trying to tell the reader that the band is different to other bands.

The name of the band goes across both pages so that the reader knows that they are linked. The name of the band is also the most eye catching image/writing on the page as it is bold and easy to read. The layout which the producer has used is half picture and half writing,this may not be the most effective way of producing a double page spread but the words "The Teenagers" go across both pages to make the layout work a lot better. The magazine also uses a couple of other small images of other bands that may feature in the magazine. The image of the band is a long shot so they can she the clothes which they wear as well as their personality which is layed back and relaxed which is represented by them lying on the bed in a relaxed manor. In the main stanzas of writing there is a blue section which is a quotation from a interview which the band have done.

The size of the font which the magazine uses is good as it is not to big, which would make the magazine look cheap but also not to small so that customers can read the writing without have to strain and look closely at the text. The fonts which have been used are good as they are not either serif or sans serif which would make it hard for anybody to read. The double page spread only uses 3 colours apart from the images, this is so that is looks safisticated and the writing stands out against the other colours.

The main parts of this double page spread is the images, it covers just less than 3 quarters of the page which shows to the reader that the producer of the magazine believes the images are more important than the text. The images are all over the page and are different sizes i think this hints at the idea of the music genre. The images also show the bands playing live so that people may be enouraged people to watch the bands. The title stands out on the plain white background as it uses a large, bold font and the colour is not that bright but is still eye catching even using a relaxing colour. The text goes around the outside of the of the images to create a border, this makes the readers attention focus on the centre of the page. The whole point of this double page spread is to go behind the scenes with the band and find a bit more information about their lifes when not performing and their emotons before they go on stage to perform. This makes the text informal as all the text is mainly from interviews. Each f the images has a small caption in the corner of the picture to tell the reader what is going on in the picture.

The title used in the contents page of this magazine is in a bold and simple font so that it is both eye catching and simple to read. The colour of the font is also effective as it links to the image because the image is ment to look like it has been taken in the olden days that's why it is in black and white same as the title. The page only uses 2 colours other than the image of the magazine front cover this is related to the image again as it tells the reader that the image is ment to show what life's like for certain people who live in not well off areas. The link to the front cover is to remind the reader of what to expect in the magazine if they don't want to read all the text present in the magazines contents page. The image used is a medium close shot, this is so that it will show the background and all the people who who are involved in the picture as well as showing the facial expressions of the main model. The facial expressions which the model shows are sadness and boredom to reflect on the area in which he lives in. The language used in the contents page has not been focused on as much by the producer same as the images, It is formal simply to inform the reader about what is in the magazine

The contents page which kerrang uses is very effective as they only use 3 colours; black, yellow and white, this shows that the magazine is smple and concentrates sololy on the music. It also uses cameos to shows what to expect on the other pages in the magazine. Underneath the masthead there is a caption from a interview about his favourite dance moves this again shows the reader what to expect inside of the magazine and who may be interviewed. The language used is informal as most music magazines are as hey invole interviews. In the top left corner of the magazine there is a link with the front page. On the images on the page there is a page number so that they can skip straight to the sections which they find most intersesting. The title and the main picture are the things which catch the readers eye the most because of the size and the colour of them.

The masthead used in the contents page is unique and cleverly used. It is split up into different sections of lettering this represents the different sections in the magazine. None of the writing is written over the top of the model this shows that the producer of the magazine thinks that the model is important as they make people want to read the magazine because they want to find out things about the model and other gossip about music stars.
The model was also on the front page of this certain magazine so this shows the link between the front cover and the contents page. The clothing which she is wearing is close to the colour of the background so that she blends in so then the reader then concentrates on the black writing which stands out instead of the model. The font used in the contents is fancy and uses serif this gives the effect that the magazine is elegant and this links to the model as well. The language is quite informal which represents the music magazines genre.
