Double Page spread drafts/explanations

Double page spread draft 1:


Double Page spread draft 2:

Double page spread draft 3:




Double page spread draft explanations:

Draft: - 1
Main picture: This is a picture of ‘Skepta’, this is to advertise the article on the left, and its aim is to make the article more appealing to my specific target audience.
Pull Quote: This is too give the reader a bit of a taste of the main article, which will ultimately make the article more appealing. It is written in an elephant font to catch the reader’s eye, this is achieved because elephant is a quite bold and large font.
Main headline: The headline is written in a wide Latin font to give it more emphasis and make it stand out on the page. The possible headline could be ‘Skepta exclusive’.
Main article text: This will be in a Rockwell font because this is a suitable font to fit in with my grime genre.
Draft: - 2
Main picture: This is a picture of ‘Chipmunk’; this successfully introduces the entire double page spread well and would catch the reader’s eye easily.
Fact file: This will give the reader an insight into Chipmunk’s life, it will give the reader a sense of familiarity with him. The font for this will be Calibri because I felt this section in my double page spread just required a normal font which will display the information efficiently.
Main headline: This will be a title which will introduce the article well; it could possibly be ‘Chipmunk exclusive’. It will be written in a wide Latin font so it stands out on the page and catches the reader’s eye.
Main text: This will be the interview with ‘Chipmunk’, it will be written in a ‘Palatino’ font because I felt this is a suitable font to represent my genre. The questions asked will be written in bold and the answers Chipmunk gives will be written in a non-bold font.
The quote: This will be written in a ‘Stencil’ font because this font stands out on a page, I feel this font is suitable because the quote is quite important as it builds up a sense of familiarity with Chipmunk by the reader.
Draft: - 3
Main picture: This is a picture of Chipmunk, it helps to introduce the article and is quite unique as conventionally the main picture is on the right hand side and the text on the left; I have done this to emphasise the fact that the grime genre is in fact an unconventional type of music.
Main headline: This is written in a wide Latin font because this font stands out on a page and is quite large, this will have the effect of catching the reader’s eye and making the entire double page spread more appealing.
Main text: This will be the interview of Chipmunk, it will be written in a Franklin gothic medium font, I have chosen this font because I believe it stands out on the page and would successfully draw the reader’s eye to the text.
Fact file: This is written in a Calibri font because I do not feel the fact file to be the most important thing on the page; this is why it is not written in a bold or large font. The fact file will have the effect of familiarising the audience with Chipmunk and ultimately making the article more appealing.
