LO4: Editing Double page spread InDesign




This is a screen record of me editing a little part of my Breakfast at Fusion double page spread. 

I first made a new document on Photoshop with the measurements 440mm and 285mm as this was the measurements from the magazine Vogue that I measured. I then dragged my image onto the document. I wanted the model on the right side of the page; however this left a white space on the left side. I duplicated the image and dragged the bottom layer to the left hand corner, so there wasn't any space. I used the smudge tool to blend together the two images, as well as using the clone tool to even the photo out. After this I used the text tool to create my Breakfast at Fusion title. I used this font for breakfast at and this for fusion.





This is a screen shot of my double page spread placed in InDesign. There is there columns on each page ready for the text.

This is a progress shot of me writing up my article in columns. I used the text tool to create text boxes. I lined each text box to the columns I created in InDesign.

This is a screenshot of me setting my text placement to the left. I have also changed the bar tools setting so I can set my first letter of my article larger than the rest.


This is a screen shot of me changing the font size of the letter "w", which is the first letter of my article. The reason why I have done this is because magazines I have previously looked at have done the same. It is also appealing for my target audience.


This is a screenshot to show the letter W bigger than the rest of my text. It makes the article stand out, making it appealing to my target audience. 

Here I am changing the colour of my letter W to white so that the text is readable. I also turn down the opacity of the letter, so that it isn't too harsh.


Here I am placing my first picture into my single spread page. I have placed it between two columns and I have set the display performance to high quality, so it looks like a professional magazine.

I have added another image from my Audrey Hepburn shoot and placed this over two columns. 




 I have anchored text on this image. It is a quote from Audrey Hepburn, which works well with the article as well as appealing to the target audience as she was a fashion icon. I then changed the font size to make it stand out.


From a magazine I have looked at, Vogue, I saw that they had "inVogue" on a lot of pages. To show magazine conventions I did this on this page.



This is another screen grab of me anchoring text onto an image. I have used the text tool to create a text box. I used this font as it connotes elegance, which suits what the article informs. 


This is a screenshot of my progress on creating my columns. 


I created another text box with the text tool onto my second page. I placed it right at the bottom ready to place my analog  photo. I used these fonts as serif connotes sophistication, and this matches with Audrey Hepburn and my target audience.
