ANALYSIS OF ARTICLES- DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD 1
NME
LayoutMise en scene created by
graffiti wall background.
This mise-en-scene
connects with the reader,
and people can relate to
this. This is a good way to
empathise with the reader,
and the social class that it
is targeting can feel that
they can relate to the
story, through the use of
the graffiti style.
Main ImageThis main image appears to
be mid shot, at eyeline level,
so we can see the whole
image, and what he is doing.
This helps the audience see
the progress he has made.
The “rapper” image seems to
be in full image here, and this
shows the full background of
dizzee’s life. The story that he
has gone through, as
mentioned in the title- from
rags to riches.
Page number
NME title
DateThis is presented for ease to
the reader. This is almost a
help guide for the reader, and
is a conveincence that allows
the reader to navigate around
the magazine easily, quickly
and conveniently. The use of
the NME logo, also creates the
element of individuality.
Byline (credit for author
and photographerThis lets you know who is
behind the work, and allows the
reader to know is behind the
work, then they perhaps can
research this. Another good
example of customer service.
Sub headingSummarises the article some more,
and States the main points of
perhaps what he is dong today.
Main heading/headlineThis main headline has
everything that Dizzee Rascal is
about. Swag, big statement and
bold. The statement: “from Tags
to riches”, summarises the article
and the audience can presuppose
that the article will talk about
Dizzee’s rise to fame. So the
heading hooks the reader, and
summarises the article well.
Individual caption, stating
the main profile of the
person in the articleThis, once again creates an
element of individuality, as if
Dizzee Rascal has styled it, and
then his fans can once again
empathise with him, and his style.
Second imageThe second image seems to be of
a radio, and alcohol bottles. This
seems to summarise the rise of
Dizzee Rascal again, but these
features also relate to the youth of
today- something that they are
interested in.
Copy (text) begins with A large letter Y using Drops CapThis, whilst being an important stylistic feature, gives NME its own
personal image, it also indicates the start of the text. It gives us a style
feature, and is also convenient to show us where the text starts.
4 columns
The column layout is an
effective way to present the
information clearly. Although
the reader wants information,
they don’t want massive
chunks of text, so this method
is good for clarity of reading.

The column layout is an

information clearly. Although

chunks of text, so this method

Analysis of
written articleThe article itself is basically about.....The rise of Dizzee Rascal. It seems to summarise the difficult
youth he encountered, and how he has turned his difficult
youth into a successful music career. The text matches the
image well, and the use of the mise-en-scene, makes the
whole article to be individualistic to Dizzee Rascal.
The style of the article is…..The style of the article, is very colourful, but then you come
to this article about the text. Although informal, with some
colloquialism, it seems to not be bursting with colour, like the
one dominated by the main image. Perhaps this is because
Dizzee is trying to be presented in a more serious manner
when he is talking about his youth and his rise.
It is written in 4 short columns each of
approx75-100 wordsThis is important as it gives a very sophisticated layout, and
makes the text easy to read. As it is presented in a sectional
manner, this makes it easier to read than a huge block of
text. The magazine has balanced the text and image usage
very well.
The main heading/headline is quite
dramatic......This is used to hook the reader in, and attract their interest.
The big, bold text is also effective in attracting their reader, in
comparison to a small title that would be ineffective in
attracting attention.
ANALYSIS OF ARTICLES- DOUBLE PAGE
SPREAD 2
Lily Allen- Kerrang
Byline (credit for author
and photographerThis lets you know who is
behind the work, and allows the
reader to know is behind the
work, then they perhaps can
research this. Another good
example of customer service.
Sub headingThe subheading summarises the
overall magazine, and it once again
shows Lily Allen in red text, which
makes it stand out more.
Main heading/headlineThe main headline in this
magazine is very attention
grabbing. The black outline with
the white text inside gives a very
cartoony feel, and this makes it
very clear and easy to view. Also
the title summarises the feel of
the text. It tells us that Lily Allen is
confident and demanding, and
this gives us an idea of what will
be inside the magazine.
LayoutMise-en-scene is quite
limited in this double page
spread. I think this is
significant however. I think
that this suggests that this
article will be white
simplistic, and easy on the
eye. This is a positive
because it makes the
article not overcrowded
and easy to read.
Main ImageThis main image appears to
be mid shot, at eyeline level,
so we can see the whole
image, and what she is doing.
She seems to be looking at
the camera with her hands on
her hips, suggesting attitude.
Paired with the big statement
text, this whole article
suggests a youthful article,
enticing the younger
audience of this magazine,
into something that they are
interested in, a bit of youthful
gossip
Page number
NME title
DateThis is presented for ease to
the reader. This is almost a
help guide for the reader, and
is a convenience that allows
the reader to navigate around
the magazine easily, quickly
and conveniently. Although the
kerrang logo is not clear,
because of the format of the
article on the computer, you
can see it and it once again
gives the magazine a sense of
individuality.
Second imageThere is no second image in this
article, and I think this is due to the
fact that Kerrang want to stick to
the simple idea, and one that is
popular with a more laid back
reader.
Copy (text) begins with A large letter Y using Drops CapThis, whilst being an important stylistic feature, gives Kerrang its own
personal image, it also indicates the start of the text. It gives us a style
feature, and is also convenient to show us where the text starts. The big
in this case “I” is very bold and extrovert, and this gives Kerrang a big
personal statement of individuality.

Analysis of written article 2
The article itself is basically about.....This article is about the life in music of Lily Allen. It tells us
how she came through a tough period at school, and tells us
of her over confidence in life, and how this has taken her to
the top of the music industry.
The style of the article is…..The style of the article is very simple, presented in a column
method. I like it presented this way because you have the
engaging image and title, and then you have he short but
sweet text, without any fancy editing.
It is written in 4 short columns each of
approx75-100 wordsThis is important as it gives a very sophisticated layout, and
makes the text easy to read. As it is presented in a sectional
