Research and Planning: Double Page Spread Research

The first Double Page spread is taken from the music magazine Kerrang!. It is an interview with the band My Chemical Romance, however they are not asking them questions, they are just talking about the band and what they have been up to. They have also done a small album review down the right hand side, reviewing just a few of the songs from their upcoming album and what to look out for.

The next Double Page spread that I looked at, was a section in a music magazine called "Radar", we can tell that this is an interview with a just starting out band, who they are, what music they play, and then on the right hand side are examples of other bands, kind of like "if you like 'The Teenagers' then you'll like these"

The next Double Page spread that I looked at was a very simple one. The picture is basically taking up the whole thing and the text is very small, with only one large caption 'Gentlemen of the Road'. This Double Page spread looks like the beginning page to a larger interview with the band, so the interview with this particular band is taking up more than just two pages.

After, I found a Double Page spread Gig Review from the magazine Kerrang!. Here we see Kerrang! going to a 'While She Sleeps' gig, rating it out of five 'K's and talking about the main focuses of the gig, if they enjoyed it and recommending you to go and see them in concert too.

This Double Page spread from the magazine Kerrang! is a strange one, and obviously a limited edition and is that weeks Kerrang!'s featured content. It is kind of a small review on 20 of the 'Greatest Rockstars EVER!', numbering each 'Rockstar' in who they think is the best.

This Double Page spread is in the 'News' section of the Kerrang! Magazine and it is showing a short actual interview where Kerrang! is asking the frontman of AFI questions. This is different from any other interview in the Kerrang! Magazine as they normally just talk about the band, not too the band.

The last Double Page spread that I have looked at is from the music magazine 'Q'. It shows the rock band Greenday talking about their favourite albums that they listen to and why. This is a nice double page spread as on the left hand side we get a small interview with the band and then on the right hand side is the featured content from Greenday, with small pictures of each of their 'influential' bands.
