Double Page Spread - Flat Plan 3

The third double page spread flat plan I created was the least conventional of a standard Hip-Hop/ R'n'B magazine as it is a little busy. The feature article includes two images of the artist, in both pictures she is wearing the same black, sleek and sexy top with wet look leggings and stiletto heels, the costume worn is very young and sexy yet sophisticated at the same time. The make-up and hair shows she is a pretty and young ’cool’ artist as the make up is quite unusual and stands out. The images have their backgrounds erased as I thought this would look different and make the image stand out more against the background I choose to use.
I will not be using this coloured background or this colour scheme, I just colour coded the boxes, text and made the background a standard colour to make it clearer to see everything. The title of the article is positioned conventionally at the top of the first page so that the audience can instantly see the title and underneath this is an image of the artist with a quotation across the image so that the reader will get drawn in instantly, this quote will be in bold letters to stand out. There is an introduction to the article on right hand side to the image so that the audience will get the chance to read a bit about the artist and what the article is about before they read on. I have placed the article on the other page with an image of the artist embedded in the article, this is so that the text is cut up a little bit and it doesn’t look a page full of text. The text will be in a conventional column style. The spine does not interfere with any of the text of images which is good as the reader won’t miss anything out that would be lost if the text overlapped the spine and the page numbers are in the bottom corners of each opposite page so that they can be seen clearly but still kept out of the way.
