Double page spreadColour scheme: The colour scheme of this double page spread matches the outfit that Justin Bieber is wearing. They use masculine colours (red and black).

Image: the image they use is of Justin Bieber posing in a way that makes him look relaxed, they use a chair as a prop in this image which helps with the pose and goes with Bieber’s image of being a pop ‘star’. By having the image on one whole page it attracts the eye of the audience. It also limits the amount of writing that the readers have to understand as they won’t want to have to read thousands of words- this goes with the age range that this magazine is aimed at.

The use of images on the article links to what the article is about and goes with the headline of “girls give me a headache”.

The colours go with the theme of the magazine, as it is a seasonal issue the colours have something to do with Christmas, this is shown by the use of the title being ‘Merry Christmurs!’ instead of merry Christmas. It uses a play on words.

They highlight quotes that they deem the most interesting, or that the readers will find the most exciting.

They include three images all together of Murs, one is used as a main focus and can be a poster for the readers to keep. Whereas the other images were took outside, whilst the poster image would have been shot in a studio.

Image used as a full page, it can be used by it’s readers as a poster. This could be seen as a ‘freebie’ which the target audience of this magazine would appreciate.

There is a theme to this page, it being Christmas. They use a play on words and uses colours that the readers would relate to Christmas.

The pose that Olly is stood in is quite playful and can be seen as childish and cheeky. This will appeal to the female audience .
