7. ARTICLE- text for DPS and images
Double page spread will be featuring an indie/rock band.
Image- The whole of the band will be in the photo, meaning a it will cover one
side (right) and overlap onto the other side slightly (left) linking the pages
together. The band will be stood/sat behind their instruments so that the image
features what most people relate to rock (guitar/drums) or playing their
instruments.
Singular images of the band behind their instruments in rectangular bordermedium long shot- binded together to make it look all one this will make the
magazine look different others.
TextThe stand first above the main text will be a larger size and more bold dark red text so
that it attracts audience attention and is easy/quick to read. The background will be the
background of the image or will be displayed onto a white background with black text
and red drop caps.
