D1. Music Magazine: Double Page Spread Initial Research

To start my research this time, I decided to approach it differently and just to look at many, pick out key points and then make the research more particular.

Similarities
-They all feature a bigger letter to start
-Most feature a larger piece of the text which is a direct quote.
-Dolly Parton and Nicki Minaj’s pages have bolder sentences which are the questions.
-Apart from the Nicki Minaj article they all have three columns.
-Muse and the NME articles both feature a square shaped image amongst the text.
-All apart from the Nicki Minaj article feature a separate picture and article however I would prefer mine to be integrated-The majority have the focus picture to the left with the writing on the right.
-Lady Gaga and Muse have quite small titles at the top of their writing which is the same colour as the text.
-All articles have black writing and all apart from Lady Gaga have one additional colour which is used sparingly on their text.
I will aim to include most of these basic guides to a double page spread. Additional Research 

 

As I saw the article of Nicki Minaj where the background was one, I wanted to find others of this kind.I prefer it when the text goes around the image like in the Adele and Nicki Minaj as I feel it enables the picture and the writing to become more interlinked.

All apart from the Rita Ora article feature the model on the right however from looking at the previous articles
