MUSIC MAGAZINE DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD ANALYSIS'
This is going to be an analysis of a double page spread from a music magazine. This specific article is one featuring Amy Winehouse, an iconic singer who inspired millions. 
The headline reads “AMYS INK HOUSE” which is linked with her clearly visible tattoos, this is making the article already seem personal because tattoos are something which she is passionate about. This suggests that this article is going to feature some personal exclusive information, by doing this it makes the audience want to buy the magazine so they can find out what it says in the rest of the article.


Headline

THE MAIN IMAGE

The main image in comparison with the text is significantly large, this could suggest that the image of the artists is more important than what she has to say. A picture tells a thousand word.

The main image is in black and white which links with what her public image was. The image is natural looking, it’s as if she didn’t know the photo was being taken due to her lack of eye contact with the camera.

This could be seen as appealing to men, she is lying on a bed with little clothing on with her hand down her shorts, making this image very sexualised.


THE ARTICLE
The article isn’t about Amy’s music although that is what she is famously known for, it is about her passion, tattoos. This links in well with the theme of a Billboard magazine, this is because the article isn’t just about the music but the musician herself .

The text contains information about her next move within her career, how she took a step back from the music and took a trip in the tattooing industry as well as opening her own tattoo parlour. This is also explaining the lengths Amy had went to in order to achieve what she did at such a young age, it focuses on her other talents that the public didn’t know too much about; suggesting that this article is containing exclusive information.


The TARGET AUDIENCE

The target audience for this specific article will be teenagers, this will appeal to them because Amy was a pop singer, and pop music is usually aimed at teenagers. Although it could be aimed towards 18-25 year olds because she was well known for her use of drugs and alcohol, this could educate that age range on the limits of alcohol and the danger of drug use.

This article could also be useful because she was a huge inspiration to others, some people were inspired by her fame and her way of life outside of the alcohol, drugs and music.

colour scheme

The colour scheme for this magazine is very simple, it only consists of one colour which has come out of the use of a black and white effect.

This links to her tattoos as the conventional colour of tattoos is typically black, this is why the title is "Amy's Ink House" because the article is all about her tattoos and her love for them.

The black and white colours give off a sense that it is documentary footage, this is because she is lying in her bed in her own home.
