Planning my Double Page Spread

The things in which i want to include in my double page spread would be pictures that are relevant and fit well within my double page spread as well as having eye catching fonts which would appeal to my target audience. I will make sure to use eye catching colours also because it will be more likely to sell but also because it makes it easier to read as it is easier on the eye, rather than using bulk text that is one colour. I also plan to use a drop cap but one that is girly as if it is too normal and what you'd expect to be in a magazine aimed at an older audience it won't fit in. I will also use images which the text will go around, rather than through as it is well suited to my target audience.

I like the different text sizes that have been used within this double page spread and i am likely to interpret this in my own double page spread. I also like how the image used is anchored by the text and that it is spread over a whole page as you are then able to see the image well. However i think there is a bit too much writing used as it covers a whole page also but it doesn't have any breaks and is bulk text which can sometimes put the reader off reading the article especially my target audience.


I have chosen this double page spread as it would've had a similar target audience age as mine so i would have to make mine look a bit like this as it would be more likely to appeal to my target audience. I like that this double page spread has used pictures and different colour fonts to break up the text as it would be more likely to be read than the previous one, by my target audience. However i will have to make sure that mine falls in between of these two and one is aimed at an older audience and the other younger.
