Chosen Ideas For Double Page Spread

I have decided that I will use, "Haich Bee, Exclusive Interview" as my double page spread headline, because it is the one I used on the front cover of my magazine. This makes it much easier for the audience to find, as the page will have the same text on. This saves any frustration or confusion caused in the finding of the double page spread in the magazine. Also, it's needed as it names exactly what is written on the page, so the reader will know what the page is about at a slight glance.

I have decided that I will use, "I want to be the very best I can be..." as the quote I use on my double page spread. This is because it shows how the artist wants to be brilliant in their career, which gets the reader more engrossed in the spread due to the positive words being used. Also, because the quote is much larger and a different colour to the rest of the font on the spread, it will stand out and draw the reader's attention into the text.

I have decided that I will use the colours, Red / Black / White as my double page spread colour scheme. This is because I used these three colours on my front cover and contents page, therefore I want to continue with the same flow throughout the magazine. This makes the magazine look more appealing, which in return makes reading it much easier for the audience.

I have decided that I will use one main image on my double page spread, it will consist of a close up of the artist's face. With the focus being directed on the facial expressions and emotions. This will keep the audience engaged in the spread because with close up images you are able to establish eye contact with the image, which draws you into the page. This image will then be placed on the right hand side of the page because this is where your eyes usually automatically look when you turn a page.

I have decided that on my double page spread, I will use a selection of fonts that are easy to read and that follow the theme of my magazine. Therefore I have chosen, WILL&GRACE, TIMES and 28 DAYS LATER. I chosen WILL&GRACE and 28 DAYS LATER because I have previously used them on my front cover and contents page. This helps keep the fluidity, making sure the same theme is carried on throughout the magazine. I will only use WILL&GRACE designs on the page, for example headers or footers. 28 DAYS LATER will be used for the headline and smaller pieces of writing that need to be able to stand out from all of the other text on the page. Finally, I am going to use TIMES for the actual article, because it is most commonly used for large paragraphs of text. Lots of other magazines and newspapers use TIMES, so the audience will be used to it increasing the chance of them reading on throughout the magazine.
