3. This is double-page spread from NME magazine. It has a very simple layout with the image on the left-hand side
of the page and the text on the right. The image is big and takes up half the page which makes the page look full.
It makes the page look like it does not have too much writing as too much text may not attract the readers. The
image helps draw the readers in as it clear on what the article is about. The colour theme is simple with
grey, black and white but the red from the image helps make the page stand out.
The title links to the image as it is one of the artist’s song. The font that is used has a fancy style which makes the
page look trendy and stylish. The big USA that is written in the background is very pale but still stands out against
the image and text as it is big and bold. The light colour stops it from standing out too much. USA is put there as

readers to the page. The colours of her shirt are used to fit in with the rock genre as these colours follow the rock
theme. Red and black are very bold colours which attract the audience. This artist is used as the article is about
her, which helps attract the target market. She looks young which helps the magazine connect to the young age
group.
The main heading stands out as it has an edgy look to it. It makes the reader read the article. A quote is used as the
title which makes it seem like the reader connects with the artist and draws the audience in. They have made the
writing of the heading different from other magazines. This helps it stand out from other magazines. Other
magazine titles tend to flow but this has an abstract theme which looks edgy and appeals to the target readers.
Also it is in black and white which are contrasting colours making it stand out.
This page also has
an introduction
