Research and Planning: Magazine Analysis (Double Page Spread)

Genre: The genre this double page spread was taken from is also an alternative rock magazine. You can tell this because of the artists this story is about and the type of image used along with the accompanying text.

Target Audience:

-Age: The target audience for this magazine would be 16-25 years old.
-Gender: I think this is once again mainly aimed at males however this is more gender neutral as the colours used aren't too masculine and are more neutral
-Occupation: Once again I think the target audience is mainly students however I do believe this double page spread is a lot broader than both the contents and front cover, this is because it's a lot simpler and cleaner  

Layout: 

The layout of this double page spread is very clean and simple, the main image takes up a full page and spills over onto the second page whereas the story only takes up roughly 2/3 of the second page. This means the reader won't be overwhelmed with text when first viewing the page. The main colours used are neutral and don't overpower the image and text, however the splashes of blue across the two pages make the story eye catching and not too boring.
