Deconstruction of Kerrang! Double Page Spread


The two pages have been linked through the use of their colour scheme in the form of a sketchy faint green border which surrounds both pages. The right page is taken up by one image of the same man pictured on the front cover, taken at a different angle, which has been bled off of the page. Whereas the left hand page follows the rule of thirds. Adverts of the featured musician’s new album are advertised on the left hand side of the left page, which again links the two pages together. The same font size has been used throughout, including for the caption of the picture on the right, which links the two pages and maintains both continuity and house style. The magazine name and page number are displayed in the bottom corners of each page, which makes good use of the area known as dead space. The name of the featured band is written along the top of the left hand page for easy identification of the article for the audience member and to simplify navigation through the magazine for readers.
