This is my plan for my double page spread, following on from my research of existing double page spreads and listing/ finding the generic conventions and features of a typical double page spread.
Throught my research of existing double page spreads of Q, Vibe and NME magazines I have come to a final plan of how I'm going to layout and present my double page spread and these are what I'm going to do -
- From my research, I found that what I usually typical of a DPS is that they usually have a whole page that is completely filled with an image taken from the photo shoot of the artist and on the other side is complete text and so I thought that my DPS would have that layout.
- Onto the other side the layout of the text is usually sorted into/ or has usually three columns on a page and that is what my text will be presented as.
- The title of the page is usually catchy or is named to match the discussion of the interview. I will have it in bold (as that is what most titles are shown as in DPS) and make it big and in black lettering.
- The most typical feature of a DPS is a pull quote (a pull quote is bits of text that have been taken from the interview and that are already in the text and put usually in the middle of the page/ column to pick/ show the important bits and sayings of the interview. I will have this in my DPS and I will work out which qoute I will use from my interview as the pull quote.
- I will also use another photo on the second page (that is because the second page features another image of the artist doing something which is usually doing a concert or doing something that they love).
- I will also have a caption under the picture to describe the photo and also the editors note on whats to come from my artist (i.e. album releases, concerts etc.).
