Double Page Spread/Research




L _The double page spread is a long shot of Florence ,the other half the article is coverage belonging to the image therefore text talking about Florence & The Machine .The title is in the background layer ,making the picture in the foreground layer stand out .The black and white background contrasts with the colour of the flag and her hair (Florences hair is her trademark red )which makes the audience focus their attention on her .The colours used in the double page spread are some of the colours originally used on the front cover of this NME issue ,black and red the grey is brought in too therefore allow these colours to stand out even more.

_The double page spread is produced by IPC Media .
I _The ideology of the image is to capture the readers attention ,being that the image is a long shot this allows all of the body to be captured ,Florence is posed in a suggestive manner of power she knows where she stands in the music industry and so do her fans .The red used in the image symbolises passion and love for the music she creates and also links with the headline USA ,red is a colour in the American flag.

A _This ussue in particular will be aimed at Florence & The Machine fans but also to those who are interested in this genre of music as magazines like NME are a good way of advertising bands to bring in more fans and advertisement of them .Obviously the audience who the front cover was aimed at will be the same as the double page spread audience.

R_The double page spread again represents Florence in a conventional way for an Indie/Pop band .The colour red is used alot a typical colour used around these types of magazines like NME .Her look is stern to show she is an independent female artist in the music industry ,therefore representing the music genre in a good way as its what the fans want to see.
