Creating my double page spread
Main image
First I added the main image to my DPS after lassoing the image I had
chosen out. I edited this on Photoshop before I added this to the page
to make it brighter and stand out more from the page.
Footer
Then I added a footer with the page numbers in the corner, I did this
my making boxes and lines that were black and red, I then made a
triangle to put the page numbers in. The colour of this links in with the
running theme throughout the magazine.
Main article/text
Next I added the main article to my DPS along with the by-line and
quote from the artist. I put this into three columns as this is a typical
convention of a magazine. I used up a whole page for my image to
make it stand out and show the audience who the main feature of this
edition of the magazine is.
Masthead/drop cap/ final adjustments
Then I added another masthead to the top of the image page as this
linked with the other two pages I have created and it let the reader
know what they were about to read so they can decide if they want to
read that bit or not.
