Title For Double Page Spread (Final)



After considering all the font options I had I went on line a looked for fonts, I discovered this one from, http://www.cooltext.com/ I liked it because it fit in well with my theme of my magazine, which is electronic/electricity.


This stands out much more than the other fonts i was previously looking at for my double page spread because its a green vibrant colour on a black background. I'm happy with this font and now can continue making the double page spread.

Title For Double Page Spread (Ideas 2)

After considering my first title, I thought it might be abit to plain for my magazine, after then looking for more ideas I looked for another font.


After I for another font I found this one, it is the font I said for my contents page, and i thought it would be good to use the same font, after consideration I found this font hard to read on the black background and i decided not to use this font.


Defiantly, Music's my life, its all I want to do!

Title For Double Page Spread (Ideas)

I had lots of different ideas for my title, I knew that I was going to use a quote from the interview I was doing, as from my research mostly all the magazines I looked used a quote from the text. Had first I used a red colour for my title, because I already knew I was going use a black background.


At First this is what I was going to use for my double page spread

Research for double page spread 2

After doing my first research for my double page spread, I then went on to look and compare it to a different syle of double page spread, this one again used a large mid shot picture on one side on the page, compared to the Q magazine one, this one uses a quote from the actually interview on top of the page, to catch peoples eye and make them want to read the full interview, this is a good technique to use and I think i am going to use this for my double page spread.

This research as helped me alot, before i did the research i would not of known how to set up the double page spread, it as given my ideas that i will use when it comes to laying out my spread, the techniques i will use will be similar to a common double page spread, and the ideas i will use will come from mainly my research.

Research for Double Page Spread 1









































To create a good double page spread for my magazine, I researched some double page spreads from published magazines, this one is from Q magazine, this gives my good ides for my magazine double page spread, I have decided to do an interview for my double page spread.  The main thing I noticed about double page spreads are the big pictures on one side of the page, and on the other the piece of writing, I think i may use this technique in my double page spread, as it used considerable alot in other pages, this as given me good ideas for my pages, and i will be taking some from this.
