Double Page

When creating my double paged spread, I referred to people within the target market for advice. They suggested that I use text wrap in the double page spread, as it is a common feature used in magazines. A lot of my target audience said that when they do read music magazines, they get bored easily, and just skim through the articles. To overcome this, I added pull quotes, to keep the reader engaged in the article. Feedback also helped me decide the fonts to use; I decided to write the question in a bold, italic typeface and then the response of the artist in a regular typeface so that they are easily distinguishable from one another. This will help the readers to keep attentive, instead of scanning through the article. I even tried to use language which the target audience could relate to, which also added a sense of reality to the magazine
