Rolling
Stone
Title: The title that is used in this magazine is large, bold
and tells the reader instantly about what/who this is about. The size of the
title means that as soon as the reader comes along to the page, they will be
instantly attracted to this bold title that will inform them about the
following article. The colour of the title that is used is kept along the lines
of what the image colour is. This being a monochromatic theme and staying
bold so that the reader doesn’t get distracted by anything else. The article is
wrote in what seems to look like the “times new roman” that is seen as a bold
plain font type. This can be seen to be used as its bold and clear, simple for
the reader to read and not have any little troubles reading some fancy type of
text. Underneath the title there is a small type of subheading that goes onto
explaining more about what the article is about, to give more depth onto it.
Being a smaller size, means that it indicates the importance of the titles. The
main one being the biggest, being underlined with a smaller type of font
(subheading) and then after this, it is followed by the article itself. Being a
small/smallest font shows the reader where the article starts of due to the
clump of the small text.
Layout: The layout of the article is quite tightly compact.
The image on the right, takes up a large amount of the double page spread that
is shown. It can be said that the article or the text on the left hand side is
very cluttered and compact. The image taking over the right side of the page,
and that the title itself takes up the top left of the page as well. This
leaving a little place for the article to be placed. The type of font that is
used in the layout sticks firmly to the font that is used throughout the music
magazine of the Rolling Stones.
The article: The article that is wrote about Adele and the
music that she has. This is an article that actually informs the reader about
the person and the music rather than some article what tells them what they
have been up to, like going to the shops or something. This type of article in
my eyes is more appealing because it actually gives interesting facts and
research that has been found about the singer, rather than boring day to day
things.
Images: The double page spread of the article only has just
the one photograph which is very large covering most of the page. On most
article pages in music magazines the image is normally kept to one side of the
page, but however this one it takes up much more, and causing the text to mould
around the images so that it doesn’t overlap each other.
Language: The language of this article is very formal and
more of which you would find in a biographical study about someone. In some
which type of language you would find on a wiki page.
