Double Page Spread - Flat Plan 2

The second double page spread I designed is very simple, typical layout, it easy to read but it can also come across as being a bit boring too  which made me consider if this double page spread is really good for my magazine. I wanted to keep it simple as it would be easier to see everything clearly. The article is on the first page and the image is on the other, the image has a quotation across it to draw the readers in because if they see a funny or interesting quote they will automatically want to read further. The image is of my first model, Rachel, her look is funky, fresh and young which fits my magazines theme and will also appeal to my target audience. The mise en scene shows that it is a funky young hip-hop magazine as her prop is headphones and she looks like she is enjoying listening to music, and her make-up shows that she is funky and young and cool as it is very young and artistic, the make up is also bright but I chose to change the image to a black and white image to make it different and look mysterious. At the top of the first page is the title of the article and an introduction to it
So that the audience can get a chance to read a bit about who the artist is and what the interview will be about. The page numbers are in the bottom of both page corners so that they are kept out of the way so they don't distract from the main image and the magazine article. The spine will not be interfering with any of the text because I have spaced the text out or image, the spine acts as a sort of divider for the text and the image.


This was the first draft of the flat plan where the image is in colour. As you can see the make-up is very bright and funky which gives the artist a young and also cheeky look as it looks playful and as if she is a very confident character.
