NME Double Page Spread Analysis



 This is a double page spread from NME. It features Lily Allen and the story of why she doesn't believe she's an attention seeker. This is an immediate summary of what the page is about, and I can tell this just by looking the the bold words that fill most of the page.


Title:
"People think I'm an attention seeker, but I'm just honest." This invites the readers into seeing Lily's personal reasons on why she is honest, and how this affects the public's view on her actions. The colour scheme of the title is like so because it makes the title stand out. The way its written in the style that no-one should be able to tell it's her, like it is a secret, but she is revealing it. This encourages the audience to read because its personal and creates the illusion that Lily is revealing secrets.

Colour Scheme:
The colour scheme featured in this double page spread is made so that it makes Lily Allen the centre of attention because she is wearing a red shirt on a white background. The contradicts the title of the article, which I may feature in my magazine.

Images:
The image featured in this article shows Lily Allen in a casual pose, showing the audience that she's opening herself up and being herself towards the audience. The image is placed towards the left, taking up a third of the page, with the majority of the page is taken up by the article.

This double page spread is quite interesting because it suggests that not only are the articles personal, but so is the magazine. This is a feature I would use in my own magazine because it connects with the reader, its personal and professional at the same time.
