2. I’m making my double page spread
in InDesign. It came up with this box
and I clicked document. It then
came up with another box asking
the size and the amount of pages I
would like. I typed in 3 for the
number of page. I will be using the
two pages that are joined together.
3. I created a box using the rectangle frame tool. I
then dragged the box to cover the whole of the
two pages as you can see below
4. To change the colour of the background I went to the
tool box and clicked on colour picker and chose the
colour which is black. I would like it to be the same as
my front cover.
5. I placed an image on the left side page. I
also resized the image so it covered the
whole of left hand page. (edit the picture
at home)
6. After I placed the image onto the dps, I
decided to edit the photograph. I changed
the temperature to +24, the exposure to
+1.10. I altered the contrast to +10. and I also
changed the shadows to +22 and the
vibrance to -100. I replaced the non edited
photo with the edited photo. I edited this
photo in camera raw.
7. I printed out the image on the double page spread to check it was blurry but it wasn’t.
8. On photoshop I
created a background
where my title of my
double page spread is
going to be. I then
saved and put it on
the right page.
This is the
image of the
white
background
This is how it is going to
be placed on the double
page spread.
9. I then created a border for
the title. I cropped the
paper so you wouldn’t get
the whole page to be
placed on the double page
spread.
I placed two opposite each
other. The title will go in
between them
10. I then created the title for the double page
spread. It will go in between the boarders
like the photo below shows:
11. I then added my first paragraph of my double page
spread. The font is Eras Bold ITC. The size of the text is 12,
however I changed the size of the letter ‘D’ to size 36 to
make it more appealing,
I added text saying ‘Questions asked by you’ in capitals
so it stands out. I will add more text underneath it and
to the right of it too.
12. I copied and pasted the
text from a word
document I already wrote
up previous.
When I pasted the
text on the page, it
came up with the
font ‘Times New
Romans’. So I had to
changed to Eras
Bold ITC.
I changed the colour of the questions and the names of the
people who answered the questions. So for example:
What made you come up with the name Blonette?
Caitlin: we came up with a lot of names such as 2gals and
tsgirls which stands for tall small girls. Ahahah!
Meghan: hahaha but then in the end we went with Blonette
which stands for blonde and brunette combined together.
13. I added more text to the page. I will add the footer on
the bottom right hand side and the bottom left hand
side of the page.
14. I added the
footer and
wrote ’05’
in the font
Eras Bold
ITC. And
changed
the size to
17. I then
place it to
the left
hand side
of the
page.
I added
the footer
and wrote
’06’ in the
font Eras
Bold ITC. I
altered
the colour
to white
so that
you could
see it
clearly.
And
changed
the size to
17. I then
place it to
the right
hand side
of the
page.
15. I decided to get rid off the photo I originally had
on the double page spread and swapped it for this
one:
16. I edited the photo using camera
raw and I cropped it so you could
see the dirty green wall at the
bottom. This is what I used to
edit my photo.
I also used the clone tool to
erase the green wall on the
bottom but then decided to
crop it.
17. I edited the photo to erase the background of
the brick as it wasn’t very nice. I used the paint
bucket to make the background of the magazine
become white. And I will make sure that the
text is black so that I don’t get confused.
18. I changed all the text to the
colour black so when I change
the background to white all the
text will appear again.
19. This is what my magazine double page
spread looks like. I placed the image in
the middle of the page. And I moved the
quote to the top of the page.
