DOUBLE SPREAD


 My Double Spread took alot of editing and alot of complicated placements but it turned out well. Following is how I made my double spread. 

INITIAL SETTING UP: 

I started off with setting the dimensions and then of course the margins of the double spread. This even included the gutter and the margins by which the page was divided into two. This is how everything regarding the margins, borders and divisions looked like.

 
 
 

THE TITLE / TOPIC: 

The topic for my double spread was "All About Rottweilers". I chose this topic because I could write apt information on it since I myself own a pet rottweiler and my photography was on my pet too. I put more emphasis on the name of the breed of the dog "Rottweilers" while setting up the title. It was put in a CHILDREN SANS font while the words "All About" were put in a KG HAPPY font. These were the fonts I selected. 

 
 
 

These fonts and the topic was placed on a patterned yellowish background which gave the first page of the double spread an even eye catching look. 

This is how I inserted the pattern of my choice:

  

 

 Along with my title and this patterned background specified to the topic only, this is how it turned out:

THE PICTURE: 

I only used two pictures for my double spread and they both didn't need any kind of editing. One is my main cover photo placed and adjusted with my topic and the other is the one I used for the second page of my double spread.




 

ARTICLE WRITING: 

I finally started writing the article and had subheadings too. My subheadings were put in the same font as of the font of "Rottweilers" in the main topic ie KG HAPPY and the article underneath was put in a simple brown Times New Roman font. This is an example of how it looked like. 


 
 
 
FURTHERDIVISIONS: 

I divided the second page of my double spread into two columns since my article was to be written that way.  This is how it looked after division.

 
 
FINAL TOUCHES: 
 
After all this, I now had to write the entire article with the decided font styles and font sizes. I also placed the name of my magazine with the issue date underneath the margins. 
 

This is how my magazine double spread turned out!

SELECTING MY GENRE

 Researching on genre, it was now time for us to choose my own genre for the magazine I will be producing. I found out a number of different genre magazines not only on the internet but also at my own home. This gave me the idea for either producing a tech magazine, a corporate magazine or an animal magazine. Out of these I had to shortlist but then decided the corporate/business genre for my preliminary task and to opt for an animal magazine for my main task since I could best use my skills in this as I was an animal lover and owner both. Not only this but you would find me reading about animals at all times, wanting to have a keen knowledge about them at all times. Hence it was my passion that I was about to base my magazine genre on now.  Therefore my magazine would be on animal care 🐾  It will not be for all the animals and would just shine the light on dogs (since I'm a dog owner myself). It would be about dogs and their care and if someone has a dog as a pet they w...
