Analysis of double page spread

Drop capital at the beginning of the article.
A quote as the title -"People think I'm an attention seeker, but I'm just honest."
Large image of artists on the right hand side.
Four columns- Short paragraph.
Short introduction underneath the title.
Artist's name in bold in the introduction sentence.
Journalist's name by the title.
Image only slightly uses direct address.
Artist's clothing, makeup and hair depict genre.
Not many colours- mainly red, black and white.
Page number and magazine logo at the bottom.



Drop capitals used at the beginning of some paragraphs.
Paragraphed- Three columns.
Large red drop capital used in the back ground of the writing- Artist's initial. (L-Lady Gaga.)
Image of the artists on the left-hand side.
Artist's name at the top of the page.
Month, page number and magazine logo at the bottom.
No title.
Not many colours used- Mainly black, red and white.
Image doesn't depict genre as much as the previous image (Lily Allen.)
Direct address makes the image appear more aggressive teamed with what the artists is wearing (Just chain.)
No quote, which is unusual for a double page spread.

The features they share:
They each use the same colour scheme.
Each have an image of the artist covering one page.
They each have the magazine logo and page number at the bottom of the page.
They each use at least one drop capital.
They each state the artist's name in bold.

I will apply these features to my own DPS, since they are the things each of them include.
