Pull quote/ cover-title: The title, in this case the pull quote takes up the majority of the double page spread, addressing the idea that they want to capture the reader’s attention on this quote alone. The letters appear to be somewhat of a newspaper cutting giving this double page spread a dangerous vibe to it as it addresses the idea of danger and recklessness. The design of the pull quote and the contrast of the colours attract the reader to reading the quote however it also alludes to the conventional colours an ‘NME’ reader may wear, as readers of ‘NME’ are often associated with dark and simply colours. Also the different font sizes address the reader, as not all readers will fit this stereotype. On the other hand it may also be used to refer to the type of reader as somewhat confused and un-sure. These are all conventional features which are used to mirror a typical layout of a magazine yet also to relate to the target audience. Main image: The main image is of Lilly Allen, this shows the reader who they are reading about. The models clothes and make-up relate to the red, black and white colour scheme keeping consistency throughout, which is a convention of a magazine. A mid shot is used to capture her top half of her body, showing her with her up-turned wrists and her hands on hips, portraying a reckless, not- caring and powerful attitude. The mid-shot used allows the tattoos to be on display conveying her as a reckless rebel, in which many readers may be able to relate to. She is staring into the camera allowing a connection between the reader and her. Language: The language used is very basic, easy to read and parts of it are written in slang, this is because this magazine is aimed at students and teenagers so the use of language used is to relate and address the readers. The language also captures what the artist is like allowing the reader to relate to her and making the article feel more personal. Colour Palette: The colour palette follows a consistent pattern of red, white and black which fits into the conventional idea of indie/rock music, relating to the artists style and music. Colour scheme does not only relate to the artist and the reader but keeps the conventional features of a NME magazine. Red texts has been used to match with the artists clothing, keeping this consistency
