This is the #1 possible design for the double-page spread which may be included within my magazine. The design can be seen as your typical style for a double-page spread. The main headline for the article is positioned across the peak of the right-hand page with the feature elements written below it, which includes covering the entire with text written specifically about the artist being featured. Other elements for the article could include, a smaller version of the Album being promoted (To help boost the publicity for it), a quote from the article enlarged to draw the reader in more, images of the artist from the photo-shoot from the Magazine, or even an advertisement PUG to promote something which either does or does not relate to the exclusive. On the opposing left-hand page for this design specifically, a picture of the artist would be included from a photoshoot in relation to the article, an aspect which would be apart of the promotion of the piece. A quote which would be excluded from the text paralleling the image would be included to attract the attention of the reader more towards the article.
#2
This is design #2 for the double-page spread element of the Magazine. The focal image of the Artist is situated on the far left-hand edge of the page, much like the previous design, whilst the title conveying the Artists name is positioned just above the photograph in large-sized text to help the convey the purpose of the article more significantly to the audience. This text would be positioned in the very upper left-hand corner of the page, so that it is still visible yet there is still room to include other elements of the double-page spread. The 'Headline' of the article on this specific design is situated on the central fold of the page so that it is directly drawn towards it, so the article becomes more apparent to reader. The text which is featured within the article is positioned much further across to the let-hand side of the page so that more information can be included, and the audience will be more attracted into reading the article. Other elements included across the article are images from the correlating photo-shoot and advertisement PUGs. For this design, rather than extracting quotes from the text and positioning them elsewhere across the page, on this one i've decided to use the idea of enlarging specific, core quotes from the article.
#3
This is the final possible design for the Double-page Spread. This time the design has been completely altered and is far more diverse than the 2 prior. The focal image for the article is positioned down the central 3rd of the spread, so the reader is immediately drawn to the image and the article. The correlating 'Headline' for the article takes position in the upper section of the first 2/3 (This would include the Artist's name), in large so that it is more apparent for the reader, much like design #2. For this design, I wanted to explore the ways in which an article can be presented, I decided to place the paralleling content of the article along the left and right-hand sides of the page. This is so that the design is different and so that the audience is not immediately drawn towards the text, also that it splits up the writing rather than being situated in on block paragraph. Some more factors of the magazine's double-page spread which can be used includes, PUGs, much like design #1 a possible album cover to help promote the artist and their work. Also correlating images from the included photo-shoot could also be spread across the page so show different elements of the shoot. I decided for this design to also follow the idea of enlarging a quote from the text, rather than copying and repeating the words in a different style, and also to attract the audiences attention.
