Double Page Spread Research

This double page spread appeals to the magazines audience because the magazine is for indie rock and rock fans and this double page shows Pete Docherty from the band The Libertines which is a well known band of this genre. Also, the headline of this article says Pete Docherty is "in good health" which will appeal to fans and the audience of this magazine because Pete Docherty is well known and publisised for being a drug addict and often going to rehab and to see a headline saying that he is healthy is good news for the fans because it means that he might be able to play live gigs which appeals to fans largely. Lastly, this article also appeals to it's audience because in the middle collum it shows a pull quote which means the quote stands out because it's something that people want to read about.

 
 
This double page spread from the magazine 'Q' shows that it appeals to it's audience because Q focuses on many genres but worlwide music acts. Lady Gaga is a worlwide musician and well known which appeals to Q's readers because people are interested in her because she is often know as unique. Often magazines rely on a big fonted headline and pull quotes to make the article appealing. However, this double page spread doesn't have this which is quite effective to appeal to the audience because it mean the readers have to read the article to have an idea what it's about which means it is more likely readers will read the whole article.

This pop music magazine also appeals to it's audience because it shows Justin Bieber having an article about him saying that girls give him headaches which massively appeals to the audience because strictly speaking Justin Biebers fans are mainly girls which means that quote could cause attraction from fans but in a negative way for Justin but in a positive way for the magazine.
