Following my mind map into different types of double page spreads, i have decided to feature a double page spread on a member of a band leaving to become a solo artist. The main article will consist of a brief narrative, introductory paragraph in order to introduce the artist and give an outline of her past. The article will then lead on to an interveiw which will illuminate the rock stars current life and how she hopes to become an extremely successful, legend of rock. It should then close through a concluding paragraph summing up the article.
The layout of the spread itself will follow traditional double page spreads in music magazines. This would mean the majority of the first page will be dominates by a posed image. This will be headed with a pulled quote from the article in a bold colour in enlarged lettering. The headline itselfs is towards the lower half of the page and back in a transparent blue background in order to frame the writing without obstructing the main image. The headline is then followed by a short sentence written in italics breifly describing the news in which the article is covering to ensure the reader feels fully introduced.
The layout of the second page consists mainly of the article. Yet there are also a few images included as well. There would be a posed image of the artist with her former band in order to give clear imagery as to what the artists histroy was. There would also a couple of papped shots included of the artist performing and a image of the shoot for the magazine with a veiw of the photographer too.
