4. Double page Spread - research
Layout of Double page spread is well spaced out, white
backgrounds, putting the source image on the left hand
side, with the written text on the other, bringing the
context ‘USA’ to the right hand side page, establishing
that these pages are together. The main image of
Florence and the machine, makes her the main source
talked about, this is specifically done to bring attention,
letting target audience know she’s the main focus. The
USA sign at the back combines with the colour, red, flag
at the bottom, embracing that she’s from America, which
brings a wider range of people to read this context,
American, people of admiration to singer, Florence. ‘Got
the love’ sub heading has to different ways of analysing
as is could be USA…got the love, talking about how this
American singer ‘has got the love’ or it can be talking
about her original song which is called ‘got the love’,
interesting audiences, also bringing a bit of curiosity to
this. By-line is written underneath this to simply show the
author of this context. Call out is written a different type
font to stand out from the main text, showing a small part
of what the main text will be talking about. A small A
drop cap is used in the context ‘D’ with the same type
phrase as the sub heading, establishing that its talking
about the same subject.
5. Double Page Spread - research
This double page spread two pages of Shakira, which is a
Latin singer who has a category in Salsa music, it’s a great
idea having her here, as she’s a very attractive woman
and is an idol for all young woman, this immediately shows
that this magazine is targeted to female woman around
there 20’s to 30’s. The layout of this double page is spread
in 4 grids, with different type fonts, to make it more
interesting, showing the text talk is different from the
others. On the left hand side, next to the image, there’s a
sub heading in which tells us that Shakira is ‘in the studio’,
knowing this, brings attention and asks questions in what’s
this about? Considering that the head title is ‘Danger!
Shakira at work’ warning that there might be trouble in her
career which is effecting her work. Pull quote is easy to
identify as the text is sized larger, bold, italic and its
underlined with colour, red, bringing the audiences focus
to this text, a pull quotes is mostly based on what the main
person is talking about and what they have specifically
said themselves. There’s 2 captions, both next to the
image, the one on the left could be explaining why Shakira
is posed the way she is, like she was in a modelling shot.
Drop cap is used to start the storyline, the letter ‘S’ could
mean that it was done as Shakira name starts with an ‘S’.
Image margin is used so that is wont be so squashed
against the other texts, images and gives the image more
space and interest.
6. Double Page Spread-Research
Layout of this double page is very simple, not so
many images are used nor colour , its clear, white
and spaced out which combine with the heading ‘Self
Obsession’ , this is saying that a self obsessed
person is always thinking and bragging on about how
good they are or what they have achieved or can
achieve, the colours grey, black and white contribute
with this. Three columns are used and laid neatly,
typography used is the same through out all the text,
explaining that self obsession is something repeated
as they always repeat how great they are. The text is
perfect, clear establishing that this is something quite
unordinary and boring, old and repeated can be
boring. The image of a woman can show that woman
are the ones that are more self obsessed than man,
the image is of her looking down at us, making her
look bigger and feel more empowered which is
something that explains self obsession, thinking that
she’s much better than everyone. Its got a by-line
saying who its written by, showing that its either a
real story told or a written article of people that are
like this in general.
7. Statement of Intent
I'm going to us an image of a tanned
Latin woman who’s singing through a
microphone, expressing her ended
love, or I can make her wearing
traditional festive clothes, this will
establish she’s enjoying life and
moving on. This will appeal to it’s
target audience and it focuses on
what her career is. On the second
page I will use an image of either a
man all depressed or of the woman
dancing with this man, presenting
the target audience there love affair
