Music magazine: stages of my double page spread

Stage 1

I started off by choosing the picture I wanted and adding it to the left hand page. I had previously edited this so the leaves looked bright around her but then around the edges of the photo went dark. To make it look natural on the page I made the right page black. I then used a typical pop font and wrote my title and a small introductory paragraph. I used the 'eye dropper tool' to pick out the colour of a leaf and use it as the colour of the title and then picked out the colour of her hair.

Stage 2

I then added three columns and inserted in my article. I used a simple font and then made the colour of the font white so then it stood out against the background. I neatened up the edges and tryed to make the article even in the columns.

Final double page spread

I added the finishing touches such as a page number and then inserted pictures of the Facebook and twitter icon. My target audience would recognize these symbols and this would add publicity because they would then look onto the Facebook and twitter pages.
