Construction Stages- Double Page Spread

Stage 1:
This is the initial starting point of my double page. I used an action as the base to my page as I felt this would be more relevant to my target audience. I wanted to use this image as it featured many shades of blue showing correspondence to my front cover. The headline of this page is different and unique as the design has been altered from what have been previously seen or that is shown through conventions. This theory links to Stanley Halls 1904 statement that refers to the storm and stress model; this evidences that my target audience are more inclined to consume something that is different and rebels against expectations.

Stage 2:
In the second stage of my construction I have developed the design of my headline by changing the direction of the word 'THE' reads. By doing this I feel that the concepts fits together better and makes the page look tidier. I have also enlarged the headline making it a more dominant element of the page. I have included a short article which fills the blank space on the page. Page numbers can be found in the bottom left and right hand corners, I did this in order to follow conventions.

Stage 3:I decided to again, develop my headline; adding a drop shadow and changing the weight of some of the text. I move some of the lettering in order to fill two lines, making the headline appear more professional. I added the Cornish map in order to show continuity through my front cover, content and double page spread.   


Stage 4:
I have added a caption to my article which introduces the text in more detail. I have also included my website link which invites a professional overview to my page. I adjusted the positing of the caption as I have decided to create a less refined and organised look by changing the column appearance.
