After creating the main layout of the page I needed to add the text. I made sure that the text fitted around my main image and was kept in neat columns, like in a real magazine. I used red text to write out my interview questions and black text to write out the answers. This makes it easier for the readers to follow the interview and not get confused about who is saying what.
I have also added in the single cover from the first draft of my contents page so that fans of Scarlet know how to buy/download her new single.
I have taken quotations from my interview and blown them up. this acts as another lure for the readers as it is there to interest them in the interview. The quotes that I have chosen are quite mysterious and makes readers want to read on more and find out what they are talking about.
When I had added in all of the text of my interview, I found that I did not have enough room on the page to fit all the text in. This meant I had to design a 3rd page in order for me to include the whole interview. I have made sure that I kept the same typefaces and colours as my first 2 pages. I have also used interwoven quotes in my 3rd interview page.
Final Double Page Spread:
After a few last little changes, I have finished my double page spread.
All I felt that I needed to do from my first draft was to add in the date and page numbers at the bottom of the page. i feel that this added element makes the double page spread look more real and professional, as of course all magazines use page numbers at the bottom of each page.
i have made sure that I have still continued with my house style from the front cover and contents pages, using the same typefaces and colour schemes throughout my work.
