This is a double page spread from Kerrang Magazine with Josh Franceschi and Oli Sykes. The colour scheme is mainly black and red which can be found on the front cover and contents page. Using the same colour scheme all the way through the magazine, means your brand is easily recogniseable, ensures consistency and looks more neat and proffesional. The layout is simple which is what makes it so effective, the main image is on the right hand side of the spread with the main text, quotes and smaller images being divided into columns on the left side of the spread. This looks tidy and makes it easy to read as the page doesnt look to busy.
This is a double page spread from NME magazine with Two Door Cinema club. The features of the page are similar to that of above in that there is a big title, a large main image, smaller images quotes and main text divided into columns. However the actual layout of the page is diffferent with the picture being placed in the right corner and the text being fitted around that. I think this makes the page appear cluttered. There isn't too much colour on the page, other than the image its mostly black. I feel this is too simple and doesnt look visually appealing, also because the text isn't broken up by subheadings or colours there appears to be a lot of writing on the page which may put people off wanting to read it.
This is a page taken from Kerrang Magazine. It usually features at the back of the magazine, singers get asked questions sent in by fans and answer them. Although this isn't an example of a double page spread directly I like the idea of having the main text on my double page spread being set out in a fan Q&A style.
