Production Diary 21 - Improving double page spread with extra information

11th February 2014
This week I made a lot of changes to my magazine after I had received feedback from my teacher.
I made various changes throughout my magazine. I added in hashtag tweets at the bottom of the page. I also added in a box which says ‘Interview with…’ at the top left corner of the double page spreads.
Front cover: I made some changes to the positioning of the sell lines as I made the plug go under the sell line that was below it before. This is because I found that it enhances the boldness of both of these sell lines. I also used the idea from an existing magazine to create this.
Double page spread 3: I extended my article by adding an extra double page spread so that it is more spaced out. I also added in a bit more text to fill up some extra space on the second double page spread. I made loads of changes to this double page spread after I got feedback from my teacher. I used an existing magazine and borrowed ideas from it to recreate mine.
Firstly I made the image only half way up the page. Then I changed the pull quote by adding a white background box to it and positioning it on the left side of the image. Afterwards, I added in the tour dates box on the left page as well. Overall I made the double page spread have a more interesting layout that I did before.
Contents page: I also changed the border of the images on the contents page so that it is rounded. I also made the caption in a box in the corner of the image. I then changed the artist index so that it is in two columns.
