Double page spread 1 : NME

This is my first analysis of a double page spread and it is from NME magazine and the focus is of Liam Gallagher.

Colour Scheme
The article itself only consists of three main colours, thus going back to this common tri-colour which NME is fond on a regular basis. Despite it usually being white, black and red usually; this time the red has been swapped out for gold which is seen a more luxurious colour. The only real use of white is that background which is all white with black and gold text on top.
Again I am fond of the tri-colour scheme and the gold seems to have a different aspect to red but the white and black seem compulsory in such a colour scheme and I would include this.
Image
This image is of an inlargeed shot of Liam Gallagher, so much so that some of the image does not actually fit into the page itself. However it take up the majority of one side of the article and the entirety of the left page almost. He fit the colour scheme of just mainly wearing black in the image and having the black and white newspaper he's holding it has gold text. The image is really superior in comparison to everything else on the page.
I would like to do something similar in the way of having an image dominate one page of the double page spread as it gives real importance to the image and more importantly to the artist the the photo is of.
Text
The bold text is San-serif and doesn't have flourishes on the end of the letters, however the main text does have serif text as it. Some text is in gold and the other in black to match the colour scheme and have a contrast upon the white background. Not only this, but the gold is used for important information or even added detailed.
I would want to use the mixture between Serif and San-serif fonts becasuse it creates a difference between the two and shows what needs to be highltighted as more important.
Layout
The layout have it as an image dominated on one page and the other page is full of text which is has different colours, sizes and fonts to emphasis what is more important than others. The image actually goes of the boundaries of the magazine to show how important the image is supposed to be which is why it has its on page nearly and the text on it is very small in comparison.
I do like the idea of having a large image in comparison to the text to show the contrast and to emphasise the importance of the image.
