Research and Planning- 5 Double page spreads of rap genre

Conventions of rap double page spreads are:
* Picture on one page text on the other page
* Columns of writing, Small text in Serif font
* Features artist name in every Title/subtitles
* Contrasting colours (White background, white text and black baground, white text)
* Two columns of text
* Artists featured all have mean facial expressions that would be stereotyped to rap
* No bright and Vibrant colours, only dark and contrasting to the background
*Flashy titles that relate to the story

Research and Planning- Magazine Text, Sans serif/serif

Serifs are semi-structural details or small decorative flourishes on the ends of some of the strokes that make up letters and symbols. An example would be the Times New Roman font. Sans serif does not have these details or flourishes. An example would be the Arial font.
