Victoria Summers is preparing a double page spread interview for her magazine. She discusses including a large main image, quotes from the interviewee, and dividing the text into columns. She plans to use different fonts, colors, and images while following conventions like a main image that spans one page and using quotes to engage readers. The spread will feature an interview with Emma White, portrayed as the female Justin Bieber, and will balance images and text across the two pages.

2. EXAMPLESFor interviews

3. Mock Up’s Artist Name/ Title Use In One Type Of Font, Clashing Colour Opposed to other colours of the page EG have it in yellow font with a black background Summary of who she is, previous success, latest album, want a bold font , maybe purple with a white outline?Interview, make sure that the text follows the conventions of having the same type of font for both answer and question but a difference of colour of text, to show difference, make sure there is also a “?” at the end .The colour scheme for my magazine is Yellow, purple, black and white. In this case I therefore want the background of the main article to reflect the colour scheme on the front page I therefore I need to have the background black for the double page spread. I can then use all the other colours of white, purple and yellow in various combinations to attract the eyes of the audience. Being as white and yellow are the most eye catching colours I should use them as background colours or outlines in various fonts. Interesting quote, maybe have it in white with a yellow background colour, black outline.? Make sure it’s a different font, want something slick, maybe use Juice?Main Image, makes sure it is colour full to attract the eye. && make sure it is also big. Maybe have an outline of Yellow to bring the audience attracted into it. Smaller picture of the artist, still have a yellow background, maybe one with her standing up? Make sure there is a small clip of who it is, what she is doing etc.Interview, same as above.Iinteresting quote, maybe have it in white with a yellow background colour, black outline.? Make sure it’s a different font, as in this case it would be the title maybe have something big and bold to make it stand out. Easier to make it stand out by having a darker font colour and a bright outline.Main Image, makes sure it is colour full to attract the eye. && make sure it is also big. Maybe have an outline of Yellow to bring the audience attracted into it. Name of magName of magPageSummary of who she is, previous success, latest album, want a bold font , maybe purple with a white outline?Conventions They follow: Having a “Main image” that fills up the hole of one page, normally one of the artist in big making them seem bigger than life

4. The article usually has quotes some where on the page, making the audience become curious

5. There becomes no longer a need for the title. Many music magazines I have researched no longer have a title for it for Example, on the previous example page the article with Lily Allen just has a quote as the title

6. a brief summary about who the artist is

7. Page numbers in the corners often missed out on the page of the main image

8. The majority of double page spreads have the majority of the page filled up with pictures and only ½ one page actually filled up of text, this has lead me to follow the convention and have the majority of my page imagery, to give of the appearance of the article being less daunting. As well as having the text in columns. Interview, make sure that the text follows the conventions of having the same type of font for both answer and question but a difference of colour of text, to show difference, make sure there is also a “?” at the end .Page

9. Main Image For Double Page Spread This would be an ideal picture for my main image as it follows a lot of conventions of the main image on a double page spread. For instance, the picture is of the main artist just sitting around showing what they do. For example in this case playing the guitar. It also has a bright background that captures the audiences eye. However this picture doesn’t have the audience looking at them, in order to solve this problem another picture in which I shall add to the article will be of the artist looking at the audience. This would give the audience the feeling still of the artist talking directly to them in and almost conversational way. This image follows the convention of a picture on the previous slide which shows examples, (Contents page says the Champion Family”. By having the picture of the artist in their natural element it makes the artist seem almost vulnerable and human, making the audience feel as if they can relate to them, therefore making them more likely to read the article.
