This is the main image of the double page spread. It is taking up the majority of the double page, showing that it is important. The image has been styled to monochrome colours which makes it look quite old but classy at the same time. The people in the image are also wearing quite classy, smart clothes which connects to the colours. It gives you a feel that this photo is from the 80’s.

In the top, left side of the double page, the small box has the title name of the magazine, ‘NME’. It is written in a bright yellow colours, this makes it stand out against the black background and the greyscale, main photo. It needs to stand out as it is the logo of the magazine and because the font is very small.

This is the main title of the page. This is eye catching because the Awards list interested many people who enjoy music and want to know who got the awards. A bold font is used for the title which makes it stand out against everything on the page.

The three main colours used on this double page are white, blue and black. These colours make the page look professional as they are quite gentle and not too colourful. The colours are quite calm and relaxing which also matches the images as they are also not that vibrant.

The beginning of the word in the articles uses a large letter, informing where to start reading front.

There is an image of three girls, band called ‘Haim’. They look like the stereotypical teenage/young girls with their ‘rock’ pose. They are also wearing clothes that show they're ‘cool’ with their leather jacket, yellow sweater with stamps on and their long, styled hair. This attracts teenage boys and it also makes attracts girls as they might want to be like them. The title above include their names and a title saying ‘new girls’.

This box has also been made to stand out, by having a brick block colour of blue, in the double page spread with the main image. This informs the audience that it has important information, so they don’t skip or miss it. The information is also interesting because it lets the audience know who the ‘best albums’ and ‘best singers’ are at the moment.

Here I have taken a piece of the double page spread about Mick Jagger. This section of information stands out in the magazine as it has a black boarder around the article, separating it from the writing and information around it, making the reader focus on this section. The text ‘Rolling stones’ also stands out as it used a bold font in large size. The reader attracts to it because Rolling Stones are the best band and musicians of all time. They are seem as ‘the legend’ in the magazine, which is mentioned in a black box above his name. There is also an image of the singer which might of been taken of him from one of his performances on stage. He is wearing the usual rock costume e.g. Hat, skinny jeans, blazer and the colours of the outfit.

Mick Jagger also mentions the girls band Haim that are also one of the main stories on the double page. ‘I wont pretend to have heard of Haim’ quoted of Mick Jagger. The quote is written in the largest text in the article of the rolling stones and also in n Italic font. This makes the girl group Haim stand out even more as they have been mentioned by one of the best, most known singer of all time. This also promotes them.This shows that the stories in the articles on the double page spread all connect in some way.

This large ‘sticker’ on the page also stands out a lot. It informs the audience with important information. It also uses a golden music trophy that points at the sticker which is a smart idea. It includes the website of where to go and vote for the next best musicians.The text of the article inn the background has been fitted to go around the sticker, also making the page look creative and intending that the information in the sticker is important. The sticker has also been placed into the article about the winning and upcoming artists, this message connects to the text in the sticker.
