analysis of double page spread.



This is a picture of the band "the teenagers". This band seem to be teenagers theirselves hence the reason why they have called their band it.

Title:
- The title of the article is called "The teenagers" as that is the name of the band and who the article is about.
- The title is done in capital letters and in a bigger font than the rest as it stands out to people when they are turning the page.
- The title has connotations of young people and instantly makes us think about teenagers.
- Underneath the title of the article is a positioning statement for the band. It says "young, dumb and full of ... filthy tunes". This tells us alot about the band as it says their young and dumb and they say how filthy their tunes are.
- The title has been wrote in black writing and it has been highlighted in blue which makes it stand out.

Piture:
- The picture that is shown in this article is of the band. There are three members and the 3 band members in the picture sit in the way teenagers are thought about. For example one of the members is sitting quite moody and in a negative way, the other member in the middle has his arm above his head which shows he is relaxed and he doesnt have any facial expression he is just straight faced, however the last memebr of the is sitting with a sort of smirk on his. All the ways they are sitting are the stereotypes of teenagers.
- In the picture the 3 members are on a bed which shows them relaxed, but on the wall behind them are pictures which shows that they have a good life going out to parties and having fun as that is what the pictures symbolise.
- On the picture the editor has put a sign on it saying "need to know" and the teenagers underneath this shows that there will be facts and information about the teenagers within the note.

The article:
- The article is done in 2 columns.
- At the beggining of the article there is a drop capital of 4 lines.
- At the start of the second column they have added a picture of one of the band members with his microphone in mid singing action.
- The colour of the writing in this article is black as it is easier to read.
- In the article a part what has already been wrote in the article has been repeated but the font has been made bigger and bolder and it has been highlighted which normally means it is one of the most interesting fact out of the article.

- This magazine article has stuck to the colours blue, white and black.
- They have stuck to a plain white background which makes the whole article stand out more.
