Double page spread

I have started to put together my double page spread, so far I have added the headline and the stand first. I have also added the main text into the main columns but I have changed the font or the layout yet, but I will  change the colour of the questions and the font.

 

 

I have changed the colour of the questions on my article because it makes parts of it easier to read and it also breaks up the text and makes the article seem like there is less writing and makes it easier for the readers to read. The red text also corresponds with the colour scheme of my magazine because I have used the red on the page numbers on my contents page. Also I have added in a drop capital for the start of my article in the same red as the questions.

I still need to insert my image into the double page spread of the artist and ensure that it looks completed and professional and follows my plan.

 



Finishing the contents page

This is my contents page so far, I have changed my heading so that the text is easier to read and it spreads across more of the page. I have also inserted a couple of images and captions to the images. I have spaced out the text and I have also changed the size of the font so that the text is smaller and the page numbers and the bands/artist's name are highlighted and bold. I have also added colour to the feature and regular heading so that it is easier to read and separates the feature and regular articles.

I have also added details at the bottom for the readers to contribute to the twitter Q&A and the album artwork page so that the magazine connects more with the readers and is more interactive. There's one more photo I still need to add in which is a photo of a festival ticket which will go under the details.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have added a red box around the contact information so that it is easier to read and it will stand out because it is important information. I have also improved and tweaked my contents page so that all of the spacing between my text on the page are evenly spaced out and I have adjusted my page so that all of it is between the guidelines.



Adding to the contents page

This is my contents page so far, I still need to do more work to it like adding in my images that  correspond with the content of the magazine

 

 
 















I have added an image to my contents page and improved the heading by creating a colour background and adding a puff with the magazine title. I still need to add in more images into the spaces and I think I need to improve my heading, making it neater and easier to read.

finishing the front cover

This is my front cover so far, this lesson, I am going to try and get my front cover image onto the page and adjust the layout of the cover so that everything looks professional and readable.

 

I have imported my cover image onto photoshop and over layed part of the image over the masthead, I still need to change and move my cover lines to that they can be read easily.
