Double-page spread analysis 3 (Q magazine)

Q magazine have used a less conventional approach to their double page spread layout. One image has been used, however, it is in the top right corner of the page and the article is in columns around it. Also, a border has been used around the edge of the page(s). This suggests that the articles featured in Q magazine are more intellectual than articles featured in other magazine (such as Kerrang! or NME for example).
The colour scheme is consistant with the front cover and contents page too as the text is red and black. This helps to deceive the audience into thinking they have a relationship with the artists featured in the articles and the people who work for the magazine also. This synthetic relationship convinces the readers to keep buying the magazine in the future. Moreover, the lights on the image attract the audiences attention to the image which contrasts with the eyeline of the image as it isn't directly to the camera lense, therefore, this combination attracts more attention.
