Textual analysis of double page spread from mixmag

This double page spread in on Dizzee Rascal a UK rapper from London, on the left hand page we get an interview with Dizzee Rascal and on the former slope it is but one large mid close up that fills the unit of the former side. It has a real interesting layout how it is split 50/50 one side a good photo and the former the interview. I remember I wish this double page spread because its not ram packed with hundreds of lines worth of writing.

It`s only a brief interview with Dizzee Rascal asking questions which the readers would encounter very appealing finding out general and some personal data near the rapper.

They get used a very basic colour scheme for this double page spread so no attention is drawn by from the photograph and the interview. They have posed Dizzee Rascal very carefully for this photograph making him look very suave wearing a white suit with a smart black tie and purple shirt. Dizzee Rascal is definitely the dominant feature in this double page spread as his photo takes up a solid page.

At the top of the bag there is a small banner which says VIP I believe this makes us enjoy this section more as it feels though we have exclusive information into Dizzee Rascals life. There is a stand first at the top of the odd page which is in big bold letters to draw our attention to that before we go on to read the interview. I consider that they chose to put Dizzee Rascal in pink because that way if you didn`t recognize who he was from the photograph you then would and so might actually then be more interested as he is a worldwide known rapper.

Just to the right of the picture of Dizzee Rascal is a quote that he says in the interview; "That`s where I`m at now - It`s like, come on, sell your soul!" I remember reading this alone entices people to wish to dive straight into the interview and read what he`s talking about. There is a picture of Armand at the bottom of the left hand page and its discussing how Armand helped him meet his turning point by fashioning the pop song `Dance Wiv Me` so having a picture Armand is quite relevant and people who haven`t heard his music are more likely to search for him and listen to his tunes.
