Double Page Spread

My double page spread I was very pleased about. As I wanted to create a realistic magazine I felt that I had to use and interpret the language of my genre and incorporate it into my double page spread to create a realistic magazine. Firstly to create my double page spread I first watched some interviews of rappers via YouTube to get me into the mind set. After I then analysed various different rap double page spreads to give me an idea of the layout. From then I put my ideas together this included;

· Language – The language I used had to tie in with my genre of the magazine therefore I changed some of the way I spelt some of the words to create that image. I change the to tha etc. By doing this is added a impression that It was an actual interview and by writing in an informal way it made the reader think that this was an actual interview.

· Image – The images I used again where to do with the genre of the magazine. I firstly added so pictures of my band in near enough the same pose I wanted to be a change to make the double page look interesting and realistic.

· Colour – As I wanted my magazine to look as professional as I could get it I used the same colour scheme that I used fro my front cover. By doing this is create a professional feel and it showed that my magazine was consistent throughout.

After analysing my questionnaire results I noticed that there was something lacking in my double page spread. To add a more realistic image I added quotes which I placed over both images on each page to add some ingredients to the double page to make it look full and interesting for the reader to read.
