Mixmag DPS Analysis

This double-page spread from Mixmag is unorthodox in that the image is spread out over the two pages, the text being shoehorned to the far ends of the pages. The colours are yellow, black and white, evoking the imagery of a danger warning sign, implying that the magazine is radical or dangerous in some fashion. The font also evokes this, it is in a block serifs font, giving across both stylish flare and a sense of urgency. The central image, that of a club, is tinted black and yellow to remain consistent with the text, and also to appear lively and energetic. I will also frame one of my photos to appear to have lots of activity. In the image itself, the crowd is slightly off-centre, invoking the rule of thirds.
