2) Mixmag Magazine
This double page spread is from Mixmag magazine. The first thing you notice when you glance at the page is the photo in the centre of the pages. The pages are mostly image based with text in thin and long columns down each side of the photos.
The main image in the middle of the pages is of 12 female D’Js they’re all wearing fur coats, this shows power.

The colour scheme of the photo is dull colours, dark grey, white, black and dark brown. This makes it look classy and timeless I think. Below the main image is 4 smaller images, these images show the girls in action, when they are D’Jing. I think this involves the audience in the article and therefore is successful.
The title of the article ‘girls gone wild’ suggests the obvious, but this contrasts with the classiness of the photos and appearance of the page itself.
The large ‘O’ at the start draws the reader’s attention at the start of the article. I may include this in my magazine to make it look professional.
There’s a subheading at the top of the page which reads ‘meet girlcore, the international female DJ collective that makes guest male DJ’s play in drag.’ This shows the power of the girls and it suggests a ‘sisterhood’ relationship between them.
The stereotype of females in the dance music are usually portrayed as wearing skimpy neon clothes, but in this case it subverts the stereotype as the women are dressed in fur coats and have a look of the 80’s about them.
Overall I think this is an interesting double page spread and I would be interested in reading it.
