2. Identifying a double page spread?
Tag line
The header/title
The house style of
this double page
spread is red, white
and black.
Organised lay out into
columns.
Basic images, simple edit.
The main image takes up
most of the space within a
pager. These two images are
medium shots.
More than one image per page usually
on the same story or a relating story.
These two images are mid shots.
3. The images aren't the only thing that fights for my
attention when my eyes first latch upon this page, its
also the heading with its use of bold text and big font
though not always bright the heading can still grab
my attention from its size and use of punctuation.
Page is organised but has an
original way of showing
it, rather than being split into
columns it is horizontal
The house style of this
magazine are the two
contrasting colours black
and white and then there
is the colour red which
helps to bring out and
exaggerate the effect
with the red and white
on a black background.
Image is represented bigger
because it needs to be seen
as the main focus of the
page e.g the lead singer or
the photo of the lead story.
The heading also is the feature on the page
that gives you a quick sense into what the
story is about without actually reading it.
While text is important its
not as vital as the image
itself so therefor the text is
a lot smaller than the
image.
5. The main cover line is a rhetorical question begs
reader to take a look its captivating and interesting.
This is the featuring story, the
second story which is a lot
smaller than the main picture so
that it doesn’t draw focus away
from the main story.
Masthead is clear and simple not
crowded or covered by the main
image. Although everyone knows
that what the masthead is and who
the company are it doesn’t hurt to still
add it on because it helps to create the
magazine.
This is a simple front cover due to there
being no plugs or puffs and only
featuring 1 extra cover story.
Main image is a mid shot in
the centre of the page because
it’s the main focus that will
draw the eye.
The tagline acts as a short
story giving the reader a
taste of what to expect
inside, an insight into the
story.
6. House style is a mix between
dark and light grey tied in
with a black to stand out.
