Double Page Spread Research 1

For one of my ancillary products, I am going to make a magazine double page spread on my documentary 'Pocket Money'. To conduct this, I will evaluate a couple of double page spreads and this will help me to have in-depth knowledge on the conventions of double page spreads and this will allow me to make my double page spread fit with the normal conventions of documentary double page spreads for a newspaper.

This double-page spread contains one large image, which attracts the audience's attention. This image is of someone famous and advertises who stars in the interview. This helps them to obtain more information about the characters. The text being present in columns in a newspaper style helps to reaffirm the narrative of being a double newspaper spread, and I want to include this convention within my ancillary product. With a main focal image, similar to my research conducted into the conventions of magazines and posters and advertisements, there tends to be a colour scheme (which in this case is neutral colours with black and white typography and backdrop). The only conventions slightly different than my previous research is the column-style writing and the typographies, which are conventions to take into mind when it comes to the making of my double page spread.
