Creating a Double Page Spread for a Magazine

Double page spread process
For the first step in creating my magazine, I created a blank background for the double page
spread. I decided to keep the background black as it would make my writing more bold and easier
to read. I also thought the red I was planning to use for the text would contrast well against it. I
then inserted my first photograph, cropped it down to size and placed it in the corner. This was
due to the fact that most magazines place there images on this section of the page.
I decided that my photograph did not look professional with no effects; I took away the entire colour
using the saturation tool to go along with the on-going theme of my magazine. I then decided I would
insert some columns onto the page as most professional magazines organise there text in this manor.

I chose the same shade of red as I used on my magazine front cover, I then inserted all the text into the
columns I provided. To make the columns stand out I also coloured the boxes in a light grey, as
it still matches the current colour scheme.
Finally I inserted the remaining text from my interview, and created a slightly
shorter column box on the right hand side page. I then inserted a second image
using the colourless theme again. I then added the quote “Ibiza madness is coming!”
in a slightly larger font.
