The layout of the double page spread is less common than other magazines, with a single picture covering both pages. This leaves less room for text on the spread itself, though the article continues onto another spread. The text is ordered into columns in the bottom right corner beneath the picture. Dark colors like black and grey are used predominantly, making the red in the image of the flag and woman's hair stand out brighter to draw the eye.

My media product challenges some conventions of real music magazines. While my masthead is similar to Q magazine's large red letter design, it differs by using black lettering and including more letters. My double page spread also challenges conventions by including two smaller images rather than one large spanning image. However, some conventions are followed, such as the central front cover image dominating the page, the contents page ordering headings larger than subheadings, and consistent colors and font throughout. Secondary images are also conventionally smaller and less important than the main image.

However, it also identifies differences such as Kerrang using smaller text, bigger images, and quotes on the double page spreads. The student's magazine is described as more plain compared to Kerrang.

Rolling stone double page spread analysis
- 1. Rolling stone double page spread analysis Layout— the layout used for the double page spread is less common than used in nme and vibe. The picture covers both pages in the double page spread which is unusual as many magazines have the picture taking up all of one page and have the other page filled with text. Using this layout means there is less room for text and so does not have a lot of text on the double page spread however the article continues onto another double page spread. The layout is ordered and the text is ordered in columns in the bottom right corner of the page. A watermark is also used as part of the headline. Colour scheme—there are few colours used on the double page spread and the vast majority of the spread is black and grey. Using these dark colours helps to make the red (on the flag and her hair) look brighter and so stand out more. The background of the page is different shades of grey as is the watermark as its also part of the background.All other text is in black font which is unusual as often the headline and or the stand first is in different colours. One of the connotations associated with red is power which is fitting in the article as it talks about her being such a success story and how she has taken America by storm.
