Music Magazine Double Page Spread

This double page spread features an interview starring The Jonas Brothers. Immediately from the colours you can tell that the target audience is for girls, the magazine shows this by using stereotypical colours for the font like pink and green. You can tell that this double page spread is targeted at girls, because in the right hand corner, it has in bold ‘hottie alert’ and the article is based on a boy band, so you know it is aimed at girls.

The first page has a photo of The Jonas Brothers, which basically fills up the entire page and also includes the main title ‘Brother Love’, you can tell that this is the main title, because it is the largest font in the article and they have also outlined it, so that it stands out from the background. They start the article on the first page by explaining what the article is about. The second page of the article, includes the interview from the band. For the interview they use a black font on top of a white background, so that it stands out and is easy for everyone to read. They also highlight the questions in green, so that the readers can easily see what part is the question, so it is easy to read, using green to highlight the words also makes the article more feminine and is angled more at girls. This page also included various pictures of the band, showing what they are famous for, which is music.

As this magazine is the same genre that I would be doing, I like the idea of having one main photo and then lots of little photos, because I believe that it would make the double spread more interesting and based on my target audience, which is teenagers and young women, I think photos would reach out to the readers more.
