The double page spread is heavily image based; this is a good idea as the images all link together. By doing this it makes the page look organised and prepared. The large main image is used as the background and instead of being cut to fit in the other images it has been layered so that the main background image can stick out the side and the additional layers can be made slightly transparent so that the background image can be seen through the boxes of text. Also the images reflect my target audience as they have the rough chaotic look about them; this reflects the personality of the reader as they look up towards the characters in particular bands as role models.
The colour scheme on the page is red white and black, this shows contrasts between the audience and bands. The red may reflect danger within the audience and there dangerous nature, this also may have connotations of death that can be reflected within the music. The black that is used is a good colour to use to show the dark side of the audience and the band, this shows they have a hidden side that they do not show off or just have a dark nature. And finally the white contrasts with the black and may show the good angelic side of them, this is a good contrast to show that they audience and band are not all bad within the music and mise en scene.
There are two columns of text together and 2 columns that are separate to the text, this is not a usual format within magazines as they are not eye pleasing and using the rule of thirds. But without using the rule of thirds this has made a good layout with tilting a box of text to make the page look messy and chaotic to reflect the personality of the readers.
