Double page spread analysis #3


This double page spread is very successful; the main image is spread across both pages and shows Lilly Allen a very popular artist with very controversial opinions. The title itself could be seen as an image as it is so complex and interesting, it immediately draws your attention to it and when flicking through a large amount of pages you would be drawn to it straight away. The colours are basic but some words are highlighted in a red colour to tie in with the shirt that Lilly Allen is wearing. The font is simple and effective in creating an easy to read, flowing article. The text is split into four columns which allows for quick reading. A brief introduction to the artist is written in a slightly larger font above the main text, the title of the page is a quote from the singer which reads “people think I’m an attention seeker, but I’m just honest” Lilly Allen is well known for her views and for creating trouble in the celebrity world. This would attract many different people as women and men are both attracted to gossip. Photoshop effects will have been used to perfect and imperfections on the artist face and to get rid of any problems on the background. The style of the spread is classy but edgy as it appeals to many different people, with many different interests. Overall I would give this particular double page spread a 9/10, the only criticism I would have is that the text could be larger.
