The first thing I did to make my double page spread was to
create a boarder around the edge of the page leaving enough room at the bottom
to put a page number.
I then placed the picture of my model on the right said of the
page leaving the other side to have the writing. I made my model big enough and
to cover half my page as that is what my research shows.
I then added an ‘L’ and a heart on the other side of the
page as a background for the writing. I did have it the bright red, which is
used on the rest of the magazine, but, then I realised that it would be too
bright to be able to see the writing over the top so I kept it as the red and
then made it brighter. I decided to have an L and a heart as this article is
about ‘Lily Love’. I decided to have this as the background as my research
shows that their magazine has done the same thing. However, I put a heart with
it to make it my own design.
I then added the title of the article with the name of the
artist I made. I wrote it the way I did as my research shows a similar thing. I
put her first name lower case italics and then her surname in capitals but
regular. I place it where I did as it is easy to notice and easy for the reader
to know whom the article is about.
I then added a page number at the bottom of the page and the
‘V’ next to it to remind the reader what they are reading. I did this as my
research did the same. I then added the date of the magazine issued at the
bottom of the page to remind the reader.
I then wrote my article about my artist that I thought would
be the most interesting to reader. My article is about a young, famous singer
called Lily Love who became a drug addict and an alcoholic after the death of
her brother. This article if about her talking to the magazine and explaining what
happened and what made her get better. It is also about her new single called
‘Forever with Me’ that is dedicated to her brother.
I then looked back at my research and realised they used
quotes from their interview and so I decided to do the same as I had some empty
space. In the top right corner, I used the pen tool the make the text box so it
didn’t go over my model. I did the same for the quote in the middle of the
page. I had the quotes a red as that is the main colour of the magazine. The
reason for why I us3ed the quote I did was because it thought it would draw
more attention and would make the reader want to read the article more as
people like to read dramatic things more.
