Article research

Kerrang uses a 10 question format for interviews, this is a recurring theme throughout most articles with the odd exception. The questions are usually casual too in order to make it seem like a conversation throughout the interview. The photo is difficult to see but the 10 questions are clearly shown above, in the next article I will show the casual tone of the article.

 

Here the casual language of the magazine can be seen clearly, the effects of having the language like this are positive as it is friendly towards the reader of the magazine and makes them feel more comfortable, it also makes the article easier to read as it seems like an everyday conversation.

 

 

 

 

The photos in these screenshots also share a similar format, they all seem to cover one side of the double page spread in order to direct a lot of focus onto the artists to attract attention to the article. The photos in these articles all seem to share a similar theme of showing the top half only, this is so that the reader is able to identify and recognise the artists easier as the photo is more intimate and up close.
