To avoid any confusion with order of blog posts i began producing my double page spread before i started my contents page, i also began the development of double page spread before i recieved the feedback for my initial front cover so when i began the process of this double page spread Darius was still my main cover star and double page spread feature.
After looking at many examples of double page spreads i chose to go with a question and answer interview as well as including an album review as a secondary feature. When looking at existing double page spreads i noticed that the main images tends to take up at least 40% of the whole two pages. With this in mind i made two flat plans on publisher using different images i had previously took and different colour schemes.
Design 1:
Design 2:
I then asked 10 people including my media teacher which design they preferred, 9/10 people preferred design 1. The colour scheme used was black and pink which i was inspired for by the band the vaccines' logo (see right). I then began to draft my album review, i decided to choose it in the style that Darius was explaining/reviewing his own album which in this interview would be his debut album. For this feature i had to create up song titles which i did by listening to songs on my ipod and picking out lyrics, i then had to review them as if i had created them. I got ideas for this by listening to artists being interviewd about their own work and i collected phrases which i could include. I also noted that some double page spreads contain puns which i would also like to be a feature of mine.
