Screenshots of my double pagespread

I started with a blank QuarkXPress document and I opened up two pages

to start my double page spread.

I decided to create a black background as it matched with my colour

scheme and it also matched with the other colours I have decide to

use. I originally took different pictures of my artist but unfortunately

the pictures weren't right so I decided to take some more. I thought

that this connected Indie more than the other ones did.

I than added this title as I believe that it matched well with my article and

main picture. I decided to use this blue colour as it was in my colour

scheme and it also stands out well against the black background.

I wrote out my stand first and copied it onto my double page spread. I chose

to write this out in white as it also matched my colour theme and stood out on

the black background.

This is the double page spread now with the full article I had written in

place. I wrote the article first on a Word document and than copied it

over onto this QuarkXPress document.

I decided that I wasn’t very happy with my title so I decided to change the

title but make a new title bigger so it stands out a lot more.

I added this title and than I was happy until I realized I still had a lot of my

article that doesn’t fit on the page.

I decided to create

another page in order to fit

the rest of my article. I

also made up some more

paragraphs for my article

in order for it to fit across

the page better.

I than added a quote in the

middle of one of my pages in

order to attract the audiences

attention. Most magazines do

this so I decided to stick to the

codes and conventions and also

do this.

I than had one extra column left

to fill up so I added an extra

picture of my musician.

And here is all of my pages together.
