This document analyzes a double-page magazine spread targeted at females aged 17-25. It summarizes that the color scheme, main image, layout, fonts, and article title indicate this target audience. The main image takes up the left page and features a model in natural lighting meant to inspire the audience. The layout is organized with the main image on one side and secondary makeup images and article on the other. The fonts are basic and plain for readability. Color scheme and masthead placement also appeal to younger female readers.

1. By the look of this double page spread it shows that it is for the same target
audience as mine which is females aged 17 – 25. I can tell this because of the
colour scheme, main image, masthead, layout, fonts and the article title.

2. The main image on this double page spread
takes up the whole of the left page, I like this
as it catches the target audience eye, it is a
model they may feel is inspiring to them.
They’ve used a mid close up which is from
the chest upwards, they have also used
natural lighting. They have also used an
innovational pose which actually highlights
the models bone structure making her
makeup look more appealing therefore the
target audience want to read how to ‘get the
look’. It is also on a pink background which
immediately attracts the target audience as
most girls aged 17 – 25 like the colour pink.

3. The layout of this DPS is quite organised,
they have the main image on one side of
the article, the secondary images of
makeup are all on the left side of the
right page, the article itself is on the right
side of the page and the article title is
situated on the bottom of the right page,
They also have a strapline on the top
right third of the right page. This to me
looks very organised and not over
cluttered which would appeal to an older
audience. The colour scheme is black
white and pink which is quite common
with magazines that are aimed at a
younger female audience as this is
something that would attract them.

4. The fonts used by this magazine are rather
basic and plain, this makes it easier to read
and also represents maturity otherwise the
audience may not be interested in reading
the magazine if it used a swirly hard to read.
It also uses similar fonts throughout the
page, although does change from some
texts. All of the makeup is numbered and
the information for the product is on the
other side which means it’s an organised
structure.

5. The masthead is situated in the top left
third of the left page, the actual masthead
itself is just “advance” however they have a
new one for this section for ‘beauty’ in the
magazine. I like this idea as it shows it is in
every issue showing continuality
throughout the different issues of this
magazine.
The Article’s Title is situated on the bottom
of the right page, it stands out as its bigger
then the rest of the text although it is the
same colour you can still clearly see that
this is the title of this specific article.
