Analysing Double Page Spreads
Hi All,
For this it is a good place to start you need to make sure you upload an image of not only the double page spread but also the front cover from that magazine. This is because the front page usually links to the main double page...the images here would be connected yet have a significant stylistic difference. You would not have the same image on the two pages and so this is something you need to consider.
You will also need to consider the way in which the Double Page spread is laid out. The following questions should help:
Good Luck and don't forget about uploading images.
Minimal: You upload a Double Page Spread from the Internet looking purely at the way the double page looks
Basic: You upload a Double Page Spread and look at the content, vaguely describing the content and how the article sounds
Proficient: You make an attempt to answer the questions above and look at theway the Double Page spread, contents and Front Page are connected.
Excellent: You answer all of the questions above, using a variety of images and annotation devices. In addition to this you make an attempt to outline how the research you have done has informed your own work by producing another Action Plan.

You will also need to consider the way in which the Double Page spread is laid out. The following questions should help:
- How are the front page and double page spread connected through images
- Does the Double Page spread use the House Style of the magazine's cover in any way?
- How many images have been used and have they been styled for a particular format?
- Have the images been used to coincide with the text used?
- What is the tone of the text?
- What is the focus of the article? Is it a Review? Interview? Retrospect? Introducing article?
- What kind of graphics have been used on the double page spread? Are they purposeful? Do they add anything to the content of the article?
- How has the article been written, pick out the codes and conventions, use the following terms:
- Hyperbole (exaggerated language)
- Copy (all of the text)
- Colloquial Language (Slang)
- Rhetorical Questions
- Direct Address
- Paragraphing
- Pulled Quotations
Good Luck and don't forget about uploading images.
