1. I began with taking
pictures of my classmate
Michael for my double
page spread as he is the
person on my front cover
so I tried to keep it
relevant

2. • I picked this picture because I had an idea of
how I wanted to double page spread to look. I
noticed it was a convention in magazines to
include a big picture of the artist that is being
written about.

3. • After this I used photoshop to manipulate the
picture

4. • I started by putting the
whole picture as my
background covering both
pages, so that the picture of
Michael would slightly cross
over to the second page.
After this I added the title in
big and bold so people
know who it is about (Silom
150 and bold) then I placed
a heading after in smaller
writing (Helvetica 24 and
bold) and this is for the
reader to get a quick idea of
what the double page
spread is going to be about.
I placed both bits of writing
on the right as the picture is
leaning to the right and I
thought it looked good and
worked well.
Using Quark

5. • After this I added
the interview that I
had written and
placed it under the
rest of the writing
so it looked clean
and neat(Helvetica,
size 12) as its a lot of
writing I decided to
put the questions in
bold to make an
obvious division of
the questions and
answers.

6. Originally I had black text
but decided this was boring
and due to the black jacket
in the picture, parts of the
writing were not as obvious
as I wanted, therefore I
decided to add colour by
making the colour of the
answers the colour of the
interview answers the
same colour as the title so
it all ties together nicely
and the questions to match
with the mans jumper in
the picture so there was
not to many colours all over
the place

7. • After this I wanted to
finish off by putting
some elements to
make it more
professional and
realistic so I put the
page numbers in
both of the bottom
corners an also in
the top left I put a
design element of
the ‘ETV explicit’
icon to keep it
consistent
throughout the
magazine

8. • To finish it off I
decided to edit
the title as I
thought it was
missing
something, I
changed the
colour of the
‘M’ just as a
design element
as I thought it
would look
more modern
and
professional

9. Mode of address
• The mode of address is indirect as he is not
looking directly at the camera, his clothes are
casual and his expression is thoughtful. This
links to the front cover where the mode of
address is also indirect. I’ve included elements
of red in my double page article because it
features on the front cover. My contents page
uses direct mode of address as she is looking
directly at the camera.

10. Consistency
There are elements on all 3 of
my pages that show that they
all come from the same
magazine for example the
‘ETVexplicit’ logo, its in both of
the left hand corners for the
pages expect in my contents
page where it is the
background. Also my colours
are consistent which are red
and black, on my front cover I
also added yellow but that was
to make it visually more vibrant
