Flat plan: Double page spread

The grid layout to this double page spread will be split into three uneven columns, much like the double page spread from NME that I analysed.I chose this style because it gives a simple layout to place my image, body text and side panel. The first column will contain the main image for this page, which will be of the same band that will be on the front cover. They will be sat relaxing, also a lot like in the main image of the double page spread that I analysed for NME. I chose this because I thought that it looked very effective because it showed the band in a different light and therefore made readers more interested to see what the text was going to be saying about them. On the top of the page between columns one and two I will have the band's name in bold writing. Underneath their name will be the word 'unleashed', this will be in the same font as the brand logo on the cover. It will also have the same shattered glass effect which will make the word stand out more. The middle column will be between both pages and will have a small rule of thirds. Within the middle column there will be three smaller columns containing the body text. The text will be an interview with the band in the image and will start with a drop capital and then will have the name of the band member that answers that question before then going on to say what he said. This will be clear for the reader to follow. Behind the text will be a white background and the text will be black, so that it is easy to read. Between the second and third smaller columns will be a pull quote with a black background and white writing. The last column on the page layout will be the smallest and will contain five boxes each with something else to do with the band that was not mentioned in the body text. The fifth box in the last column will have a navigation element to turn to the next page, however it will not say what will be on the next page. This will be to make the reader more interested to see what it will be and therefore keep reading. The background for the first two columns on the page will be in white but the last column will be black. The fonts for the body text will be serif because that is easier to read when your confronted with lots of words in one place, and any headings on the page will sans serif. The Band name, which will be Old School, will be in a different colour and style to the rest of the writing and the 'unleashed' will be in bold read writing so that people see that it as being dangerous and interesting.
