Double Page Spread Research

Kerrang! analysis:

 NME analysis:

Conventions in both Kerrang! and NME:

• Used an obvious colourscheme
• Main cover image took up the whole of the left-hand image (K!- had no puffs due to studio shoot, NME- used 3 puffs on image to break up from busy backdrop)
• K! broke up text using highlighted questions in Q&A whilst NME used images and pull-quotes to break up text
• NME used a side-article to make page look busy whilst K! filled the right-hand page with one article
• Main headline for both pages was bold and stood out from image and text
