Double Page Spread Editing -Draft

After experimenting with what I was going to do on Photoshop, such as adding shapes, I got rid of all the features and left just all the additional editing of the image and the models in the picture.

I opened Microsoft Publisher and then set the margins to what I wanted them to be.

I then enlarged my edited image on to the page.

Then I created 6 columns demonstrated by these images by drawing a text box, and selecting how many columns I wanted on the page.

This is what it looked like after pasting in the text onto the document.

I made the page numbers firstly by making a black box by clicking on Shapes, clicking on a box and putting it at the corner of the page. I selected my colour by selecting black on Shape Fill.

I copied and pasted this box on to the other side of the page, so they were the same size.

I added page numbers in the black box, using the Imprint MT Shadow font with size 20pt.

To make use of graphics, I created a red box firstly.

Then I made a white box and a white triangle on top of the red rectangle. This is where the heading for the topic in this graphic would be.

Finally, I added a black box on the left hand side of the page.

Then I added a circle which is where a quote from the text will be placed.

As well as positioning the black box correctly I produced a Drop Cap.

Then I increased the size of the text from A4 to A3, and created a guideline of columns, again having six columns.

I firstly cropped the image of Tom, the drummer, so it had full focus of him playing the drums.

I wanted to create borders around the little images, so I went on Format Picture – Colors and Lines, and increased the weight to 7.5pt.

Then, for the main heading, I changed the font to Adobe GaramoundPro, and the size to be 12pt.

I made the title of the songs bold, so the reader could know what was being discussed.

Here is the font I used for quote in the Graphic.

For the headline, I used the font Graffaire, and increased the size to 40pt. I also changed the colour to some of the words in the font to make it more outstanding.

For the kicker, I used Calibri font, the same font which is used for the paragraphs. I highlighted the band name, Not Quite the Norm, in bold.

The whole of the text was in Calibri in font size 11.

In order for the text to fit around the models, I made a text box so the text would not be hidden by the band.

This is the font of the text in the textbox – Calibri, in size 10pt.

For the last paragraph of the text I put it in Italics, to show that the last paragraph is for promotional purposes.

To get the little pictures of the band performing to fit on the page, I overlapped the picture of the singer on to the picture of the guitarists playing.

This is what it looked like after editing it.
