Double page spread from NME


This is a double page spread from the magazine ‘NME’. I think that this double page spread will appeal mainly to boys; this is because it looks like a magazine that will attract boys because of the colours of the page.

The masthead of this magazine is very bold and big; I do think that this could be a bit bigger if the title was in upper case. I like the font of this masthead because it stands out. I think that I will use a font like this for my prelim; this is because I like it and it looks good. The masthead also attracts the eye because it is a contrast from the background because the masthead is white and the background is black.

The image that takes up half of the page is very dark and it is very hard for the customer to see the picture and who is in the picture. I think that this picture is rubbish because the lighting isn’t good in the picture and I think that the picture isn’t close enough the models because you can’t see the faces of the people.

The layout of the double page spread is good because the picture will not get hidden when the page is creased. I like the way this page has been laid out because ever though the picture takes up half of the page there is still a lot of writing about the band. To break up the text there is an important quote that is from the article, this breaks all the texts up so the customer wont get bored of reading the article.

I don’t like this double page spread that much so I think the only thing I will use from this page will be the font that is used. This is because it will catch the reader’s eye.
