The document discusses the layout and design elements of a magazine article. It summarizes that the article title takes up half the page in large bold black font to attract attention. The subheading provides context and mentions other celebrities to draw in readers. The main image is a full-page photo of Dizzee Rascal wearing stereotypically masculine colors to focus on male readers. Columns, fonts, quotations, and informal language are used throughout the article to appeal to its target male audience.

1. The article title is extremely large bold. It takes up around half of the second page, which makes it
one of the first things that the reader will see. It is in a black font, which hugely contrasts with the
white of the background, making it very clad and easy to read. It is written in capitals which makes
it feel as though the words are being shouted at the audience, thus making them seem more
important. The words are not in ordered lines which makes the page seem busier.
The subheading for this article is an introductory sentence, which gives the reader more of an
insight into what the article is about. This allows them to decide whether or not they will be
interested in reading the article, without having to read the whole thing. The subheading is
designed to attract the target audience to the article, and does this by mentioning other celebrities
such as Kate Moss, who they target audience would had heard of, thus drawing their attention. The
subheading is also written in a black font, making it clear, and Dizzee Rascal’s name is in bold as it
is him that the article is written about.
The main image is a photo of Dizzee Rascal which takes up the whole of the first page. This photo
is used as the article is about him, and the scale of the photo shows that this is one of the main
features in the magazine. Dizzee’s clothing fits in with the colour scheme of the magazine, as he is
wearing a red jacket, a white shirt, and dark jeans. This repetition of stereotypically masculine
colours reinforces the focus on male readers. He is not looking at the camera which suggests that
he is not welcoming the reader, and implies that he doesn’t want them to know about his secrets.
This naturally makes the reader want to find out what he’s hiding.
The other images placed underneath the article are also relevant to the content in the article,
however these images will probably not help to attract the target audience to much, as without the
article these images have no meaning. Because of this, these images are a lot smaller than the
main image.
The capital letter at the beginning of the article is very large and bold. This draws attention to the
beginning of the article, which makes the reader more likely to read it.
Columns are used to position the text for the article itself. The columns are equally sized, and so
although these pages appear to be busy, they appear to be quite organised. This is more visually
appealing for the audience, as they will be less overwhelmed by all of the content on one page.
The font for all of the texts are written in black font, as this again contrasts with the white
background. The font used for the main heading is sans serif, making it seem less sophisticated,
and emphasising the fact that the magazine is targeted towards middle and working class men.
However a seri font has been chosen for the article itself, making it look more official, which implies
that it is telling the truth.
Quotations will be used in the article to imply that it was Dizzee himself that said these things,
making the audience more likely to believe that the information provided is a fact.
White space is mostly hidden as the background is covered in graffiti, which makes the pages
seem busier. Graffiti has connotations of rebellion, which links to the target audience as men are
stereotypically more rebellious than women.
The colour scheme for this double page spread is the same as the colour scheme for the front
cover and the contents page, and includes reds, black and white. These colours appear to be more
masculine and so will attract the target audience.
The language used again seems to be very informal. This is because colloquial language is used
to make it seem to be more conversational and friendly.
