Analysis of Double Page Spread- Kerrang


This double page spread easily portrays its genre through a number for factors for example the colours that have been used are red, black and white are all associated with the genre. A very popular band “My Chemical Romance” has been interviewed on this contents page this was to attract to its target audience. The main image shows a man holding a microphone this represents music to be the key focus of the contents page, it also looks  like he is leaning on the microphone which is helping him stand this suggests  that music is the only thing keeping him alive. There are also 3 other images included two of them show the band with musical instruments this signifies the importance of music. This double page spread has less text to the R&B one this may be due to the fact that its target audience prefers this and would rather enjoy the having a lot of pictures  rather than text. In comparison to the other R&B double page spread this one it much more bright and stands out whereas the R&B one was plain and simple the reason for this may be that metal/rock music is generally loud and differentiates itself from other music genres. The double page spread grabs its reader’s attention by implying that the magazine is “WORLD EXCLUSIVE” which is in bold and stands out from its red background. Overall this contents page stereotypical shows what it genre looks like and what they are interested in.
