Double Page spread progress

Sketch Plan This is a sketch we put together of the different ideas we came up with for our double paged spread. We want it to be eye catching and interesting so the readers will be intrigued about our Documentary and want to find out more. We positioned the title of our documentary at the top of the spread as we want it to be the first thing readers see so the name remains in there thoughts. We also chose to hang the letters ‘P’ (passed) and ‘L’ (learners) to add creativity. The position of text is formal and organised too add structure to our spread and also make it easier to read.We included images of the interviewees and documentarians to add insight into our documentary.

We chose to make the Channel Four logo big so that readers were aware on what channel our documentary was being played on. However, this is only a rough sketch and in our final we hope to include a box of facts about driving at the right hand side of the spread and we also want to overlap images and text to add creativity.

First DraftThis is our first draft on the computer, using Microsoft Publisher. This is a more realistic draft of our spread and the ideas we had can be expressed on this page. For the facts and figures box we researched information on car accidents and young drivers and chose the most appropriate facts to go with our documentary. We structured the layout so it was not over complicated and easy to read. To add variety to our spread we took our pacific quotes from the text and enlarged them and placed them on the theme colour. The colour we have chosen for our theme is a colour that Channel Four often uses in adverts, so therefore it makes our spread look more professional and realistic.

The image we have used in this draft is not the one we will be using in our final spread as it is a secondary image from the internet. We placed it hear because we wanted to get an idea of what the layout will look like and the effectiveness of it. We will be taking a primary image of a bridge over a motorway.

Final Result This is our final double paged spread, however we are considering taking another better quality picture as the focus on this picture is not to the highest standard. I think this spread looks more professional to the previous draft as we used a variety of images, fonts and pull out quotes. The use of colours consists with the our theme and therefore adds continuity throughout our work. The title is ey catching and bold, which is what we hoped for in order to attract readers. We have included more text and images to link in with magazine styles we had researched. All the images are primary ones we had taken ourselves.
