Double page spread analysis


1. The image on the right page is the most dominant thing on this double page spread this is because it fills one whole page, it uses minimal text and uses different colours compared with the black and white which we would associate the text page with. The figure in the picture is Brandon Flowers, a well known lead vocalist in the band "the Killers" This band is very well known due to big songs they have released. e.g. Mr 
Brightside.


2. The font used is sands serif, this is because it is a pretty formal piece of writing, they use this font up until the most dominant part of the text is written. The reason this has been done is because it is a quotation and "I'd still have a chip on my shoulder" is not a formal use of language, it is much more informal.


3. "i'd still have a chip on my shoulder" is in big, bold, red font because it wants the reader to see this dominant piece of text and think to themselves "why?" which would then make them want to read the whole article so they know why he would have a chip on his shoulder. The colour of the font corresponds with the colour of the logo which may also indicate this is an important part of the text. 


4. The title of the this double page spread is not in large text, this may suggest that whoever has bought this magazine will know for definite who the man in the picture is so they will automatically know who the text is about. The font colour is black, this is because there is a basic plain white back ground and the colour black stands out well on this colour.
