I first made the background completely black to match the black ground on the contents page. Then I imported this picture from the pictures I took of the band. I felt no need to edit this as the lighting made it look effective enough. I did however put a red border around the picture to contrast it from the back ground and make it look more 3D.
I imported the front cover .gif file of the Articles and placed it slightly covering the main picture.
I found that some magazines gave a one or two word introduction to the pages so I put “The Interview” into a red text box and placed it in the top left hand corner above “The Articles”.
I cropped a picture of each band member and then imported them into the double page spread. I resized the two band members giving the interview to large pictures and the other two band members to smaller pictures. After putting the same red border around the pictures, as I did to the main one, I positioned them to form a rectangle on the second page.
As on the contents page I imported the magazine title as a small picture and created a text box containing the page number and date. I made sure that the page number corresponded with the page the contents page said it should be on.
Instead of making my interview seem fake by making it up, I actually interviewed two friends who are band members of “The Articles”. This made the interview seem more realistic. I made the introduction bold so that it differentiated it from the rest of the text and I also change the font colour of the questions to red to fit in with the red and black scheme.
I took quotes from the text and made them large and in speech marks so that they stood out against the rest of the text. The point in them is to direct the reader’s attention and interest them. A lot of magazines use these.
