Generic Conventions for a double page spread
· The title text, and pull out quotes are in a larger font to make them stand out.
· The header ties the article in with the rest of the feature it is joined with.
· The title text is bigger, and then the text in the article is smaller.
· The title or image often overlaps the gutter to tie the spread together.
· Cohesion brings the story that 2 page spread together. For example the image is slightly pink, as it the title colour.
· There are often logos all over the spread to promote the brand name.
· The images instantly tell the reader who they are reading about and what kind of persona they have. If a reader if flicking thought the magazine they will recognise the artist and wont to head on.
· Articles are split into columns so it is easier to read and looks less to read.
· An image caption explains to the audience what the picture is about.
· The footer is used for brand image. The magazine constantly reminds you it is Q magazine. It also informs the reader how to subscribe. It also has the page number which is useful to find the page.
· Drop Caps draw the attention to the start of the article.
