More double page spread development

1. Here I have kept the same kind of design for my double page spread. I thought that it could look like a more conventional double page by adding the two borders at the top and bottom. I have kept the 'Anthem Exclusive' heading from before but I have made it bigger this time and made it the same orange as everything else.


2, 3, 4. The three images above were two different ideas that I wanted to try. I tried three different ways with the word 'Erica'. When I tried it in red, I originally wanted it to stick out from the rest of the double page but then I realised that it looked too out of place and didn't fit with the house style. Then I tried it in orange which did fit with the house style but then it blended in too much and I think it looks like there is too much orange on the page. Then I tried both words in black (4) and I think it really works a lot better than the first too and still fits in with the house style.

5. I decided that I wanted a quote underneath the artists name so here I was just trying out what it would look like with the quotation marks.
6. After being quite pleased with my previous look, I realised that if I folded the image, the artists name would be cut between the centre of the page. I didn't want this to happen so I had to make the artists name smaller which actually worked in my favour because it meant that I had more room to fit in the quote and the interview
7. Here is my magazine with the quote below. I am not sure if I like how this looks.
8. Even though I don't like the quote, here is my magazine with the article. I would like to get some feedback on whether people think it looks better with or without the quote.
9. This is my final draft. I wasn't sure about the article introduction at the side so I have added another post with two versions that I will get people to give me feedback on.
