Double page spread final

To go alongside my magazine front cover I decided to make a double page spread
 

To maintain consistancy thrpoughout my work I used the same hand drawn patterned background as the cover
 


I then overlayed a white transparent box so the text would be legible over the busy background
 


I added my title in the same font and gave it a cental alignment to give it hierrachy over the page and draw the readers eye
 


I added my images which relate to the context of the article
 


I added my texts into two collums making sure that the text was left aligned. I made the subheadings pink to make them stand out from the main body text. I paragraphed each section so it breaks the text up and makes it appealing to the eye
 


Using my polyprinted spiral design I overlayed this over the whole double page spread. I then multiplied it so the colours blended nicely. I really liked the use of bright pink as the warm colour adds contrast to the rest of the cool colour scheme used
 


I then added my subheading
 


At this point I thought I was done but after reviewing my work I thought I could make some improvements.
 


I added a page number....
 


....and the magazine name. I used the same fonts/colours to keep consistancy
 


I added a drop capital in the colour of my subheadings
 


I then felt that there was too much white space as the idea of this double page spread was for it to look busy. I then added in a quote from one of the band members
 

This is my completed magazine double page spread.
