Chosen Double Page Spread Photo

I have chosen this as the double page spread photo because i think the busy background makes it very striking. Hannah's pose also gives off alot of attitude which is also the mood that is presented within ther interview. I will be using this picture to cover the entire first page of the double page spread as this is an effect I have seen on alot of the existing double page spreads that I have been looking at and I have found that it gives a very proffesional look. I will be putting a large quote over the image that i will chose carefully from a section of the interview. On the seconf page of the double spread will be a short introduction to the interview and then three columns of writing. I will make the interview informal and chatty and use colloquial language so that it really appeals to my target audience. I will be usiing the font 'Centaur' as it looks very proffesional and is often used in magazines and newspapers. I will be scanning ina number of objects and placing the images in an overlapped fashion in the bottom right hand corner of the second page of my double page spread to give the spread an arty look and hopefully make my overall work have an abvious running theme through each section.

Double Page Spread Analysis

Double Page Spread Analysis

After designing and creating a cover for my magazine will be creating a contents page, the contents page i will be designing will only be a single page but i have been given some very good ideas by looking at this double page contents from a food magazine. I like the large picture on the right page as the bright colours of the asparagus really contarast well with the sheer white of the back ground.




I am very interestind in re-creaing this look myself using a pair of pink converse shoes which i think relate to the genre of my magazine perfectly, I will be using the same composition as in the this picture with the overlapping and i am also interested in using the shadow effect as it really make the image stand out. A very rounded font is used for the enlarged numbers on this page, this makes the magazine appear freindly and laid-back, i am also hoping to achieve this mood for my magzine and therefore will be using a similar font. Although i usually do not like things to be represented in an organised and totally paralell way i really like the simplistic effect that has bee created with the line of contrasting photos on this page, i could re-create this effect on my cover by photographing objects related to indie (possibly an acoustic guitar or quirky watch).
