Double Page Spread 15 at 05:48

This is another double page spread. I was just playing about and looking at all my spreads. In the end I decided to do this one because I preferred the title on this, liked the colours and background on another and liked the way it was set out on a different one, also I took into account the feedback I had. So I wanted to put them all together to see what it looked like.

Feedback at 01:24

After creating my double page spreads I decided to get some feedback from my peers. Here is the feedback I gathered:

They are all good but the ones that stand out to me more are numbers 14, 12, 6 & 5. Only because they are set out in a good way and attracted my eye straight away. I wouldn't say that using colours for this particular article would be relevant, especially for a rock music magazine. But out of those 4 I like the title on number 6 but the layout on number 5. On numbers 12 and 14, I like the red effect and the black background.

I think the colours are good but they don't work with this story. The best one created mainly have the black ground. My favorite ones are 9, 10 & 14. For a rock music magazine black suites it better. Also for number 14 using the pictures behind was a good effect because it wasn't over the top, it was just right.

Using columns rather than paragraphs is so much better! It looks like a proper double page spread when it is done like that. Keeping all the writing on one side is good aswell but having it on both sides spreads it out and makes it look less to read but it doesnt look as professional. I think that number 14 is the best because you have made the most progess but the others are good too.

Double Page Spread 14 at 09:08

This is another double page spread. I have removed the arrow and added another picture to the bottom left hand side. I think it now stands out more.

Double Page Spread 13 at 06:49

For this double page spread I added a background to it to see if it made it any better. I think I will add another picture to see if it makes any difference.

Double Page Spread 12 at 04:12

This is the latest spread I have created and this time I added a different photo and put all the writing on the left hand side. I think it is a good double page spread.

Double Page Spread 11 at 03:43

This is the same double page spread but I have added an outline to make it stand out more. In my opinion I think it may be the best one so far.

Double Page Spread 10 at 03:29

This the same spread as the previous one but all I have done it deleted the background off the pictures of Kris.

Double Page Spread 9 at 03:27

This another spread where I ended up putting the background back to black and adding things in to make it stand out.

Double Page Spread 8 at 03:25

This is another spread I have created and I kept the background but changed a bit of the layout

Double Page Spread 8 at 02:33

I decided to keep the same layout but just change the colours. I want to change it a bit more because I like the colour and the writing on in the columns but I am not too sure on the layout.

Double Page Spread 7 at 02:30

As I said I was planning to change the back ground colour and I decided to go for red, green and blue. I chose these because I thought it went quite well.

Double Page Spread 6 at 02:28

This is another double page spread. In the end I decided to cahnge my writing back into the columns as it is more conventional on a double page spread. I think the left hand side is a lot better than the right hand side because I think the right hand side is a bit bare. Also I think I may change the background colour because I have experimented quite a bit with black and white and silver and I cannot find anything that is working.

Double Page Spread 5 at 02:25

This double page spread is quite different to the previous one because I decided to make the background black and ocne again rearranged my layout. I cannot decide on how to keep my layout or background. I am not sure on keeping the writing in that postition so I think I will change it to how it was before.

Double Page Spread 4 at 02:23

For this one I decided to go back to basics and see how it turned out. I chose a white background again but in my opinion it was too plain. I thought it was good having most of the writing on one side though.

Double Page Spread 3 at 02:21

For this one I decided to take a different approach and change the layout and the background. It think it is ok but I am sure I could still do better. I will be getting some people to comment on my spreads and hopefully produce more.

Double Page Spread 2 at 02:19

This is another double page spread that I have created as I needed to play around more and see what else I could do to make it better.

Another Double Page Spread at 05:52

I managed to find time to do another double page spread. This is what I came up with and I asked a few friends to look at this over the internet and they have said this is the best one.

What Now? at 03:08

Well up to now I have created all my front covers, contents and double page spreads and now I am on to my evaluation. In my opinion I think I could do a lot better on my double page spread but since there is only one day til deadline day I will keep my latest one as the final piece. At the moment I am now working on my evalution but if there is any time left I will see if I can create another double page spread. Once I have completed everything I will post my improved double page spread (if necessary) and then my final products, followed by my powerpoint and finally my evaluation.

The Other Double Page Spread at 02:58

This is the other double page spread I have created and as it is only one day til deadline this, at the moment, is my final double page spread.

Double Page Spread Improved at 02:47

I took a different approach to creating this double page spread, I changed the layout, the background behind the writing and also took off the main picture. I thought it was more appealing but there is another one I have made that I think will be used as my final piece.

Another Double Page Spread at 10:39

This is another double page spread and I have changed one picture and rearranged some of the things.

New Double Page Spread at 10:32

After I created those contents, I decided to now move on to double page spreads again. This is another double page spread I have created. I kept the same writing and mainly the same pictures but I added 4 pictures and changed the background to see if it made it better.

2nd Contents at 08:55

This is the contents without the black lines. In my own opinion I think its better with the black lines. Well with the black lines on everything or not on at all. Having the black lines on makes it stand out more so I still took the idea into consideration but I will stick with the black lines.

New Idea Of Contents at 08:51

For this contents page I tried something completely different and the feedback I got from my peers was good. It actually surprised me because I wasnt sure if it'd work but I am quite pleased with the results. One thing a peer said to me was not have the black lines around the features and extras so I will try without it and see what it looks like.

This is my template of the contents I created which is shown just above in the same post.

Another Contents at 03:20

This is the same contents page as the previous one but the only thing I have changed is the colours. The reason why I have chosen the green and yellow is because they are used on my front cover and it was more appropriate to use them.
