analysis of two featured articles.

This magazine (NME) would have this layout because of its target audience would expect it. They would expect many pictures in this two page spread. They would also expect big bold titles to show off the artists that are featured in the magazine. The layout is set out like this because it is set out the same basically every week with the same techniques used like I have mentioned, bold text about artists, big picture with little ones dotted around the page and the information on the side bar.

This magazine called Vibe uses this layout for this magazine because it definitely suits its target audience. This is because this magazine is clearly for women, as it has a picture of a fashionable girl and her story witch is aimed at women it also shows this by the colours that the lady is wearing, very feminine and also the way the pager is set out like the title and what the writing also says. This is a good lay out for this magazine because it shows everything that a girl would want to find in this kind of magazine, also the pull quote explains the story in her words, which makes it more interesting and catching. The only thing about this magazine that I dislike is that the title for this article isn’t big enough for someone to look at it and read straight away, you have to read into the subtitle to know what who the article is about. The way they could improve this is by putting a big title at the top so the readers know instantly who it is about.
