Research: Double Page Spread of Music Magazines (NME) - Savages

NME Magazine - Savages' Double Page Spread



The Savages are featured in a NME double-page spread, and have a very large mid-group shot of the band, which dominated a good three-quarters of the two pages.This image contains a grayscale filter, creating a serious style - reinforced by their unexpressed faces.
Along the bottom of the magazine features a large text, where NME described them as 'control freaks', which is in a turquoise blue. The word 'freak' has half of a rectangle box around the left side which drips down to the very bottom of the page - this giving a very simplistic, yet clever layout. There is text in line with the top of the half-rectangle which is in a 'type-writer' style font, again featuring the blue text for important text or the band/members involved.

The far right text column (the main body text in this case) is very small, which is a common convention of magazines. Also, another convention used commonly is the large letter which is coloured to suit the house colour scheme (in this case, turquoise blue), to start the main body text.

In the far-bottom left and right contain a page number which is very small and looks as if it has been added the font style of 'bold'.
