This is a double page spread from the magazine 'Q'. It uses dark, simple colours of black, white and red. I think these colours are made to represent sadness more then the possible love and purity because Madonna herself looks fairly upset or unhappy. This is effective as they use colours to represent feelings and emotions rather then words.

The main image is of Madonna who is wearing black and silver clothing. The image takes up one side of the double page and effectively looks like Madonna is resting on the first page.
In the bottom corner of the page it also gives a quotation from the story; this is enlarged and usually placed there so the audience will read this and then want to read more.

At the top of the first page it uses the heading of ' Cash For Questions (Special Edition)'. This is due to the magazine being a special edition and featuring a new technique for interviews. Although this is the headline, the first thing to catch the readers eye is the large, bold, white writing saying 'Madonna', this is due to the fact that it is white and stands off the black background.

The writing is fairly short and takes up only half a page. This is usual for a double page spread as they normally feature short interviews or reviews of the star.

I think my magazine double page spread is going to be similar to this in the way that the main image uses a whole page and the writing is short and simple. This is a typical double page spread.
