1. Compare and Contrast
My double page spread was inspired by Top of the Pops double
page spread. Both of the article title’s are in the same place,
however, Top of the Pops title is a pull quote whereas mine is
not. My strapline is under the banner whereas Top of the Pops
is in the banner. My double page spread has an intro and a drop
cap, however, Top of the Pop’s does not. Both of the double
page spread’s have information in the bottom banner
underneath the article. My article only has two columns whilst
Top of the Pops has four columns with one column being on the
opposite page. Both articles have two sub images, however,
they are in different places – mine are both together unlike Top
of the Pops. Both of the double page spreads have a pull quote
on the opposite page and my double page spread has an
anchor for the dominant image. Both of the dominant images
are on the same page, but Taylor Swift is making eye contact
with the audience unlike my model. Obviously, Top of the Pop’s
magazine is more professional looking than mine. I am aware
that I need a clearer dominant image that is less grainy but
overall I quite like the layout of my double page spread.
