Beady Eye - NME - Analysis


As you can see this double page spread has a large picture in the middle, a main feature (Liam Gallagher). He's had that picture done in an professional photo shoot.
This interview has a lot of text and quotes in it. Again NME have stuck with an 3 colour pallete, this time black, white and gold. This again stands out very well but it isn't too flashy. The pictures' colours match the writing font aswell.
I like seeing a main picture in the middle to focus on and having text on both sides of the picture. This makes the larger interviews not only more interesting to read but easier to read as it helps space out the writing so its not all a one, big pile of writing.
Also i think that the use of important quotes that have been put in between text helps space out the writing aswell. Having the quotes in larger, bolder writing and in a different colour font allows the reader to see what that part of the text is about. For example Liam says "I think the tunes are just as good as 'definitely maybe', if not better. (this is located at the right hand side of the right page).
The interview itself asks alot about the bands appearance, their style of music, their plans for their band and themselves individually, as well as how successful their music is and what their music is like.
