What’s new?
I have made significant changes in my second draft of my double-page spread. I have flipped the image so that Jess is looking at the text, changed the layout of the columns and added coloured blocks to match my theme behind the text, added my actual article, changed the name of the article to to something more interesting and relevant, along with adding a standfirst and different images from the shoot. I am much happier with this draft after taking feedback into consideration.
Next Targets:
- Place the standfirst higher up
- Some of the copy is very close to the edge of the column boxes
- Add page numbers
- A byline is needed
- The insets need some thought…is the caption too long?
- Either caption the other inset or don’t include top right
- Check all 3 columns are the same size
- Consider changing the main headlines font
What’s next?
Next, I will work on the layout of the double page spread, whilst considering how fonts, colours and font size affects the look of the page. I will also be adding some conventions that I forgot to add such as the byline and page numbers.
