Analysis of Q magazine double page spread

This double page spread features take that, a very popular pop band. The main image on this double page spread is of take that, they are standing in a line behind each other and all looking to the camera which helps the audience to connect with this article and picture. The image is quite creative as all you can see is there eyes and it is in black and white which fits with Q’s image, this image also show a lot about who this magazine is aimed at, you can tell from the image it is for a more mature audience who will see this creativity. There is a quote from the main article on the left-hand page of this double page spread, it is in a different larger font that the rest of the text, this attracts the reader’s attention. The quote is in same bright red colour as the Q brand logo on the other page, having these in the same colour links the two pages together. The title of this article is simply ‘take THAT’ this is straight to the point a precise as a more mature audience does not need to be drawn in to an article by the title, as they probably bought the magazine to read about take that. This title stands out and gives a sense of creativity as the ‘take’ is in italics and ‘THAT’ is in capitals. All of the text on the Q&A page of the double page spread is in a more sophisticated font and all the text is in black, this gives connotations of being for a more mature audience and that take that as a band are becoming more mature. The language used in this double page spread is quite informal with artists using words such as ‘dunno’ this will make the audience connect more with the what is being said as this is a word regularly used by the target audience of late teens to young adults.
