DEVELOPMENT OF MY DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD

I used the slice tool to divide half of my page into 3 and the other side in half. Using these columns I filled the first with a picture of a featured artist mentioned throughout the article. I chose to have a grey textbox beneath to place her name and pull quote in to make stand out. I also chose grey to stick to my colour scheme. On the font of her name I changed the "L" and "S" to a dark red colour to make it a bit more quirky and "in your face" like hip-hop/rap culture. Originally I had a very long pull quote in the text box, however I felt that it was going against convention as after looking at competitor magazines I felt that it was too long in comparison so I cut it down to follow convention.
