2. Analysis of
written article
The article itself is basically aboutDizze Rascals life and how he
is turned it around. It describes his turn to fame and fortune and
how grateful he is for this about meeting fellow celebrities.
The style of the article isvery informal and iswritten in 4 short
columns of around 75-100 words in each which explain his path
of life in easy to read language.
The main heading/headline is quite dramaticand makes it stand
out, this attracts your attention almost straight away. It uses a
quote many people know but is changed to relate to Dizzee's
situation, this makes it easy for the reader to remember. It is a
large font which appears informal but readable and is in black on
a white background making it stand out and contrast. It makes a
bold statement that the audience may feel inspired by the story.

4. Analysis of written article 2
The purpose of this article on the double page spread
is to let the reader in on Leona Lewis' secrets and
unusual questions. The whole double page spread is
based on this interview.
Thelayout is very to other magazine suggesting this is
aimed at a younger audience and made very wild land
the page looks very busy. It shows images next to
textboxes with different questions from the interview
in.
There is no intiial headline but there is main text which
attracts your attention. This is a simple quote from
Leona Lewis which is unusual and makes you want to
read on to find out more. However, there is a
subheading underneath which explains that is an
interview and then says her outrageous answers.
Although this is not as large as the quote which
appears to be a headline whereas the subheading
explains it.
