Changes to double page spread.

After looking through magazines I changed my mind on how I wanted my double page spread to be, I thought it had too much stuff going on so therefore I change the layout of what it looked like. I took out 2 pictures and expanded one of them to cover the whole p age and a bit more of the other side. Also, I changed where the title of the page was put- Before it was over the main photo but now it is on its own in a light purple colour which draws attention to something else rather than the photos themselves.


I like the layout of the text better on the second one as I think it will be easier to read and follow along better than the other one did as it looked out of place. I have seen many magazines with the text laid out like this and I think that it looks very effective and in order.

I have to create 2 other pieces along side my documentary and these can be; Radio Trailer for the documentary. Double-page spread from a listings magazine focused in the documentary.

I will create a film like poster which will need to catch peoples attention and make them want to watch the documentary- I want it to be informative about what the documentary i...

Draft double page spread

After finishing this I have decided that this is the idea that I want to use, I love the theme and the images but there is a lot to change and rearrange with trying to make it look like a proper magazine double page spread. If this was going to be my final piece I know that many things would have to be change such as- The spacing within the text doesn't look profession, it looks scruffy and mismatched. I would make it all square and equal. I would do this to produce a crisp and clear line between the text and the photos.  There no page numbers which would need to be on there as it would not be a proper double page spread- This would need to be added to my final pages.  I would make sure that all of the images looked as if they go together, I may even fade them into the background.
