Research double page spread (third)

This is an example of a typical double page spread in NME. The left side of the page is totally taken up by one, strkining image. There is a fairly equal balance between images and text so the reader can gather the gist of the articke without having to pay to much attention to every detail from the text.




The band names that appear thoughout the article are highlighted in pink so that the reader can skim read untill they find someone they are interested in. The use of the colour pink suggests a article based on girl bands. The writer uses the word live with a bright pink background to make it stand oout which suggests Nme have the most up-to-date informed news about the band. Also such a simple word is used for a short catchy effect for the reader so it doesn't bore them with too many words but also makes them want to look at the rest of the article. Also the images are all of different artists so the reader doesn't become bored of looking at the same artist, also it gives a greater chance of the reader paying attention to the article as they might see an image of an artist they are really interested in. Furthermore a catchy phrase is used in bold, black text across the two pages ''call of the wild''. This makes the article intriguing and to by the use of the word ''wild'' and gives a sense of artists that are totally out of the ordinary.
