Originally intended to be a double-page spread with a bleed image of Chasing Dragonflies encompassing the above text regarding the same article, I decided to take the more simplistic way of making the article look professional by adding a photo of Shereen looking at the camera whilst in Southend complete with the "INSURGENCE EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW" blue label at the top left and divided the page into two using a bold black line. Drop caps were utilised in order to make it look as professional as possible, and two more photos of the featured band were used (all wearing different styles of clothing) to give the article a splash of opportunity for readership appeal. The main headline, MATERIAL GIRL, was draped in black and white, with the background being the former colour. White coloured letters and black outlines make up for necessary creativity, while the drop shadow reinforced impressive detail.
A well written piece, did you mean to mention 'shsg'- would your readers know what she was referring to their?
ReplyDeleteYou don't need the date reference on the main image.
you should try and use up all the blank spaces on your copy pages, you could make the opening lines in larger font (rather than just the first letter) and that would fill up more space
