The document summarizes the layout, color scheme, images, and fonts used in magazine spreads about four different musical artists: 1) Nicki Minaj's spread uses pink to attract teenage girls and features a plasticized image of Minaj to portray her as a style icon. 2) Lily Allen's spread aims to show her as relatable through her casual clothing and questioning facial expression in her offset image. 3) The indie artist is shown casually dressed with a blank background focusing on his face, conveying he seems uninterested in being there. 4) Jay-Z's spread contrasts red and blue to represent his two sides, and features a serious image of him to show his dedication to

spread analyses

2. COLOUR SCHEME
The colour scheme is black,
White and pink the pink will be
used to attract the audience
which is most likely to be
teenage girls
IMAGE
The image used is Nicki
trying to look plasticised
as she is trying to look like
a store manikin the word
icon on her hand is key as
it can be used to show
that she wants to be style
icon. Nicki’s outfit is close
to her skin so it is used to
make her more
provocative and the zebra
print is used to represent
the animal desire that
males have over her
LAYOUT
The page is laded out with Nicki
minaj in the centre surrounded by
text. The text is layer out in a
numbered system as to represent
the ten commandments from the
gospel the fact that the image
covers up the artists name shows
that she is so well known that
people don’t need to she her name
to know who she is
FONT CHOICES
the font starts off in a fancy
and serious look when it
says the gospel but then it
changes to a larger more
bubble writing style for her
name which can be used to
symbolise that she does not
want to be seen as being
serious

3. COLOUR SCHEME
The colour scheme is red
black and white. The red is
used to highlight
important parts of the text
IMAGE
With the way that Lilly
Allen is dressed it is meant
to be relatable to the
audience as she is trying
to look like the average
girl next door. This image
is a mid shot of lily Allen
stood sideways which
suggests that she is
questioning and not
seductive which is unusual
for female artists
FONT CHOICES
The font starts out like it is
cut out of a newspaper this
represents that defies
convention and is also a
attention seeking way
LAYOUT
The layout is that a page is
taken up for the image alone
then a large section of the
other page is taken up with the
title which shows that the
layout focuses more on the
image and the title than the
article

4. COLOUR SCHEME
There is a darker, gloomy and
saturated tone within the article. The
Colour scheme shows how simplistic
and easy going it is how he would like
to be preserved. The text scheme of
green and black which match's the
hues of brown on the artist
IMAGE
He seems to be an indie musician
as he is dressed casually wearing
a flannelled shirt and a necklace
and has large thick glasses he is
unshaven and staring blankly at
the camera, he doesn't seem to
want to be there. The image
focuses on his face as the
background is blank so this makes
him the subject
FONT CHOICES
The fonts on the
header which are
coloured black are
larger to be focused
on more. It is a direct
quote from the artist
which shows the
reader has a personal
insight into his life
LAYOUT
The layout of the
double page spread is
basic as it shows a large
image of the artist and
the text is on separate
page, not covering the
artist face. This creates
an impact for the
reader as well as the
words ‘ orgies’, ’
vomiting and ‘Vicodin’.

5. COLOUR SCHEME
The colour scheme is black white red and
a green kind of colour. The red can be
used as a connotation for anger and
passion where as the blue can be used to
represent the opposite of everything the
red stands for this can show the two sides
of Jay-Z .The red J in the middle
Which fits in the other page as it would go
in the idle between the two colours
IMAGE
In the image Jay-Z looks quite serious
which can be used to suggest that he is
serious about his music
This could appeal to his audience as they
know he doesn’t mess about when
creating his music. The chain around his
neck can also be used to suggest his
wealth and how he makes a lot of money
FONT CHOICES
The font choice is simple but it
looks smart. The font is bolder
at the beginning of the text
which allows people to identify
were separate parts of the text
begin. There is a large red J
which stands out more and
attracts the audience. For the
main article the size of the text
is small which allows for there
to be a lot of text on the page
LAYOUT
The layout fills the space which
means that it looks smart. Half
of the double page spread is a
photo of Jay-Z . This is used to
show his importance as the
article is focused around him.
The article had a lot of
information which allows it to
fill all of the space on the
pages
Masthead
The Mast head at the top of the page
is called ‘ the most exciting people in
music’ this attracts the audience as
they will want to discover more
about him and how they can be
more like him
