For my double page spread i had nothing i previuosly done to base it on, however i reasearched music magazines to see their layout aswell as fashion magazines as i wanted the style of the interview to be sophisticated. I started with the image by spreading it all over the background and from that i then based the text around it. I decided not to put the title straight as i thought that would look too plain and obvious, so i changed it to be diagonal. The image was also in a black and white shade, to carry on the edgy style through from the front cover, however because of this i found it hard to choose what colours to use, as i wanted to use the colours that i used for the contents and front age. However my original text on the double page spread was white which i couldn't use as you wasn't able to see the text. After a couple of colour changes i ended up using a grey tone which was darker than the background which made it visible, i then wanted the questions to be in a slightly bigger font and colour, i decided to use a bright pink so it was clear and easy to see for the reader. This colour was the same shade that i used for the other pages.
The pose i wanted the girl to be in was sophisticated and classy, the image still appeals to the male readers but not in too much of a porovocative way. This strong image highlights the females views and her attitudes, in the interview she comes across independant as she is there without her band mates and the interview doesn't talk about her love life and she is also talking about her future, which shows that she is a strong and determined women. Her pose and costume is provocative but in a classy way which indicates that she is has respect and is a good role model for young girls, as in the media women are usually seen flaunting their bodies to get attention.
