Analysis of three Music Magazine Analysis of three Music Magazine Double Page SpreadsDouble Page SpreadsThese are the three Music Magazine Double Page Spreads I am going to analyse. I am going to talk about different aspects of the Double Page Spreads and say how they affect the style and layout of the Double Page Spreads, and also who would the Music Magazine appeal to.

I think this Double Page Spread is laid out simply, the writing and picture are not very eye-catching, and it wouldn’t particularly appeal to me, but this Double Page Spread does have some for the text bold and highlighted – which does attract you to that section. There is no particular artist on this Double Page Spread, just two women- but they go with the theme of the article, because they seem to be clubbing/partying.In this Double Page spread, it includes a standfirst – underneath the Masthead ‘Filthy Funk’ – but doesn't include a Drop Cap, which is unusual because most Double Page Spreads had a Drop Cap – this makes it even more uninteresting – it has some writing about the pictures in the corners of the picture, but no quotes - which, in my opinion makes me want to read it less.I believe that this Double Page Spread is aimed at people in their late teens, because its something you need to be into and want to read rather than something that you read because it captures your eye.

I think this Double Page Spread captures you attention because it uses colours that stand out, the text is large in some parts as well – like the title and the Pull Quote – this would make me want to read on, personally. On this of ‘Ghost in the machine’ and two these picture the man is represented as dark and gloomy from the lighting/where he is/the was he is standing/ etc, but in one of them he is seen as thinking.In this Double Page spread, it doesn’t include a Standfirst but it does include a Drop Cap at the beginning, also this one includes a Pull Quote which is larger than the other writing and is orange – which makes it stand out – this is good because it catches your attention, also there is several different imagery which draws your eye to the Double Page Spread.I believe that this Double Page Spread is aimed at teenagers because who are perhaps into his sort of music.

I think this Double Page Spread is different to what you would normally find in ‘mixmag’ because normally it will centre around a artist/band and this one centres around the theme of ‘Rave’ – this could attract a different crowd to this issue or the Music Magazine in general. The text stands out, especially on the first page, this will attract people to want to read on – although the rest of the text is relatively small making people a bit reluctant to read it.In this Double Page Spread, it includes a Standfirst and a Drop Cap – which was a Double Page Spread should include. But it does not have a Pull quote, this could be because its not an actual Double Page Spread about a artist/band.I believe that this Double Page Spread is aimed at older teenagers, because it had a ‘Rave’ theme.
