Here is my double page spread that I have made which will contain the Q&A I have created speaking to the ‘fan favourite’ Elly Anslow.

I have inserted the title of the magazine at the top left of the page and put ‘Q&A’ in red writing so that people know what they are looking at. The picture is focused to the right hand side of the page, but I have used Photoshop and Indesign to create the effect of the background going on to the next page, however I think I need to work on it a little bit longer. A quote from the interview is spread slightly across both pages that is dramatic and intense and will attract the reader into reading the Q&A. The actual article itself is spread about in three columns of small writing to give a neat and tidy presentation.

5 Targets for Next Draft

• Change picture (this one is used on my new front cover)
• Liven it up a bit, make it less plain
• Get actual article into the page
• Have more detail in the article section, (different colours, font size)
• Brighten up eyes and jewellery in photo

Feedback

• manipulate the photo, brighter, bigger
• paragraphs
• drop capital
• standfirst
• reposition the quote?
• add some graphics…lines….shapes to frame the article/photo?
