Double Page Spread Number One

From my research, I have constructed a double page spread which hopefully get my target audiences approval. I have incorporated the colour scheme from the front cover and contents page to allow my products to appear linked. I have used an image of the band that links to the front cover and hopefully it looks interesting and young.

Feedback-

Rachel- I like the colour scheme and the font, however I feel that it is very plain and could do with a bigger main feature picture, also, the image looks a little plain. There is too many white spaces for my liking.

Alex- I like how the contents, front page and double page spread all reflect each other, however, I feel that this looks really cheap and unprofessional and definately needs either, more text, a bigger picture, or more pictures to hide those white spaces!

Amy- I like how the image on the front cover and double page spread are linked, I like how you have kept the same style and colour throughout, however, I feel that this magazine double page spread looks very cheap, plain and unprofessional, I think with further development though, it could look really good, your idea just needs to be reconsidered.

Kate- I like the way that the image used on your front cover and the image on your double page spread look similar but different, it shows that the magazine is uniform, however I dont like the double page spread in general. It looks very empty and plain. Use bigger images and think more carefully about the layout!

Sarah- I like the squiggly patterns in the corner, they look like those used on previous products, however, it seems that the image used is pixelated and too small, also the layout doesnt seem to flatter the amount of text to image ratio- it looks very amateur!

Me- I completely agree with the feedback I have recieved, I dont personally like my douible page spread, and if I brought a magazine which contained this double page spread, I would be very dissappointed as it looks unprofessional and boring.

I will make another double page spread, which will hopefully satisfy my target audience much more than this one, I will take into consideration the layout, images, colour scheme and font.
