This feature article has a very noticeable house style. The read writing is bold and stands out on the black back ground and black and white images with the white head line in the centre that immediately draw your eye to it. The article has a large block of information and writing on the band that is easy to read up close and includes details on the band and around it there are relevant pictures to the article which give a feel of what the article is talking about. Next to the article there is a ‘lowdown list’ which gives small pieces of information and facts on the band. This could help to make the band more popular as is encourages readers to read about them and learn about them. The band chosen rally suits the target audience and the picture of the band recording records and performing would attract the right people who are interested in music and also backs up the idea of them being deeply involved in their music.


This article is from NME about Lily Allen and popular music artist. The first thing you notice about it Is the house style of the jagged black and white text and Lily in her bold, red top. I think this works well with the target audience as it fits in the ‘individual’ theme of the magazine and represents Lily as ‘out there’ and against the rules of a strict colour scheme with the rest of the articles cold white and black. By main head like of ‘People think I’m an attention seeker, but I’m just honest’ is evidence to how she feels she is free and maybe against society, which again works well with the magazines feel and probably the types of people who read it and like to have role models that rebel or represent rebellions.
