2. To create the double page spread the software I
used was InDesign with the addition of
Photoshop to edit Images. When creating a
double page spread there were various codes
and conventions I tried to follow such as the
way it is layout and the content.
3. Layout: The layout I used in the
production of my double page
spread was inspired from a
variety of different double page
spreads which consist of a main
image and title on one side with
all the text on the other.
When Researching Double Page
spreads all of them showed the
convention of having one main image
and possibly one other or multiple .
When constructing my double page
spread I used two images. As the
genre of my film was Horror I wanted
the images to be reflect this, so I used
the image of the hand and the one of
the hand on the tree in the night
because it seems mysterious.

sign I was going to use it needed
to be edited to have a black
background as my page was
going to be black. To do this I had
to open it in Photoshop and edit
it before I could used it. Using the
magic wand tool I had to select
the background around the stars
and cut it away.

spreads there is a bold
Title that stands out. I
followed this convention
as it is needed for the
audience to have insight
into what the article will
be about.
The articles content is
supposed to be a review
of the film criticising and
praising different aspects
of the film such as the
plot, characters and
acting. Whilst reviewing
the film they must try not
