double-page: Print-screens

I started of with a full white background, then I inserted the image in the double-paged article (the left side, as it wanted).

Furthermore, I made the other side a light grey colour so that it goes with the colour scheming of my magazine. Also, the reason why I never chose a dark grey is because it wouldn't blend in with the white colour next to it. I used the line tool to create a line which divides the picture side and the article side, also it is clear that it is a double-paged spread.

LEFT SIDE OF THE DPS:

Here I included an 'exclusive' text at the top of the left side of the double-paged spread and the bottom as well, this works very effectively and goes with my colour scheming as it is medium grey and black. Also, I've created a quote on the top left side of the dps as it is mostly used in r&b magazine, this then conforms one thing used in a r&b double page spread further on, it is in black which conforms my colour scheming.

Also, the image I chose goes well with the text on the right side of it as it is her name. I've made her name's width long as it wanted empasis on the name,also, the font medium sized because; I wanted it to be clear and noticeable. Also, the text below it is in a smaller font which makes the font above it look superior and, the colour of the 'JADA LOUIS' is the same colour as the two worded text underneath it which is 'The amazing', I made the font colour like that because, I wanted it to stand out.





HEADER OF THE DPS:

Here I created the title 'JADA' by using a newsletter type font, this worked very effectively as I picked really good ones from google images and put them close together to make a word. Also, I wrote a summary of Jada Louis as a artist so it attracts the reader to read on this article, I made this font colour dark red which goes with the font of the 'Jada Louis' on the left side of the double-page spread.

Also, I have a 'QUESTION &ANSWER' text at the to right corner as you can see, this is so that the readers are aware that this article will be an interview with the famous r&b artist Jada Louis.

The text of the double-paged spread was put on the right side, this is because; R&B magazines have their text on the right side always and their image on the left, this is why I have done this.
Also, I started off with a quote and made it red, this is because; I wanted the pull out quotes to be eye catching, the reason i went for this is because; it works very effectively and I saw a lot of R&B magazine and some of them use it so, therefore; I put it into place. Also, I put another pull-out quote in the middle of the article, when the artist 'Jada Louis' was answering one of her questions, this was very effective as you can see below (a zoomed in shot).

 Furthermore, as you can see here I added a 'PHOTOGRAPHY AND ARTICLE BY: SUMAYA MOHAMUD' which is me, this works well as it looks realistic. Also, I put the page number '41' on the right side of the double-page spread, and I put another page number on the other side which is on the left side (40).
