PLANS FOR MY DOUBLE PAGE

SPREAD

• Colour pallet

• Text (font)

• Images

COLOUR PALLET Colours have inherent meanings, which can vary depending on

the country or culture. These meanings have a direct impact on the

way your visitors perceive products especially magazines.

In the previous examples, there is a constant use of the colours

red , black and white. The red is harsh against the black and white

theme and therefore stands out more and attracts more attention

to the page.

In my magazine . I will take in to account that the colour pallet

needs to be engaging towards my target audience and be able to

stand out making the page look more appealing.

TEXT (FONTS)On the majority of these examples, the font is formal where the text is .

The vast majority of fonts are classified into types that separate distinguishing

characteristics of a group of fonts. Most common font types are serif, sans serif and

script fonts. Other types of fonts are characterized as dingbats or graphic fonts

Individual fonts have the ability to convey a wide variety of meanings based on the

way they are used in the typed materials. Selecting a font which helps to express

the meaning of the document will allow you to have a greater impact on the reader.

For my magazine I will use a serif font alike these example pages because it will

classify the formal approach to music the artists I have chosen to be part of my

magazine have. .

IMAGES All four of the example pages have one large main image that instantly makes

the artist recognisable to the audience.

A successful shot attracts the eye for a while. Visual elements that a

photographer uses in the composition are for example lines, forms, textures,

balance, symmetry, depth, colours, perspective, scale, and lighting.

Composition can have a dramatic effect on the resulting image and in my

opinion is equally important with the subject itself. When composing an image

one should always think about what he wants to tell with the photo.

I will use one main image on my double page spread and use two to three

smaller images that reveal/ support more information for the reader ( e.g: CD

covers or other artists )
