The first article that i am looking at is from the magazine kerrang upon first glance the article will stand out because of some of the over the top design which is on it examples of this would be the font that is used on it as it is very large and will jump out at the reader it may also stand out because of the colour choices that are used throughout these are colours like red,black and white these are good colour choices for this magazine as they are very loud which fits the heavy metal style of kerrang magazine perfectly. The images which are used in it are also very large and dominant which reflects the magazine well because of the style of it. The layout is quite hectic because of the shear amount of things that are on the page however despite this everything is still very easy to find which is important as someone will not want to have to try to find what they want to read. From looking at this article the magazine seems to be more informal because of the fact that there is not that much text in comparison to some other magazines.
The next article that i am looking at was taken from the rap magazine vibe the magazine has a large picture to the left of lupe fiasco which was most likely done to grab the attention of anyone who may be a fan of him and will be instantly recognizable to them the colour scheme that is used throughout the double page spread is black and gold the use of the gold may be to symbolize something such as wealth but it also seems to be used to highlight key points throughout the article as well that will be of interest to the reader of the article. Also a quote from the article is in big font this may have been done to make the reader want to read in more to the article to find out what it is about in more detail the gold is also used to separate the questions from the answers in the interview as well. The image seems to fin in well with the feel of the rest of the article with it being more of a serious interview rather then it being a jokey type of interview.
