My Double Page Spread




















Here is my double page spread (DPS). I think this is a fitting DPS because it is in keeping with the style of magazine I wanted to go for. This is a small magazine with a high circulation as I would want it to be free and given out at gigs, similar to that of The Fly.

I chose the colour scheme of the magazine Q as it adds a level of maturity to the magazine as well as the colours being complimentary.

I used a very common layout used by the fly in this DPS as I liked the simplicity of it with the clear layout and ease on the eye.

The full picture on the left was taken and then I added lens flares to add the effect of being on stage. I think this really works with the posture and emotion of Andy. This can also be used as a possible poster opportunity giving the audience a bonus gift along with the free demo CD.

On the right, I superimposed him strumming the guitar because I thought it looked rather good as well as it relating to the article. I used the red banner to keep the colour scheme flowing and break the page up so it didn't look like a big block of white.
