Here is the first draft for my double-page-spread film review page.
Overall I am very happy with the drafts and I believe with a few tweaks I could get this looking very professional. The first thing I have looked at is the headline and logo. I have looked through many fonts but I believe they didn't match the exact style I wanted on their own. To fix this I designed and made the logo for the magazine. The concept behind it is a Reel from a movie camera, this therefore links in with the name of the film and the topic it will be covering. This, although little, help a lot when coming to the final draft.
I also decided to position the text of the review on a one side to allow for an easier read. In addition I believe this fits the typical conventional features of a real-life film magazine, which in tern allows a level of professionalism to be put onto my Double Page Spread.
Putting the red on the page allowed me to ultimately show another colour to keep the audiences interested in reading this page. I have seen certain other designs that appear boring and of low standard due to the fact the page has been one colour.
It's also a way of separating different information such as the main review and the rating system on the page. Intern this means I can use the colour to pull people into the key parts that I want them to know. This allow for another stylistic feature which keeps the page looking fresh and interesting.
Moving on from this draft I will look at creating the same rough layout but tweaking parts such as fonts and colour so the page looks and feels like a high standard film review magazine.
