(61) Unprecedented- FINAL Double Page Spread

 

Good morning guys! Welcome to another blog, as promised I have for you my finalized double page spread! This one took a bit of time to get a design that I liked, but I finally got one nailed, here check it out!




Now keep in mind this is two pages your viewing, so if your trying to read the smaller text it would be a little difficult, but anyways this took a while to get right- obviously working with a long feature story was a little tricky, but I managed to get a visually appeasing way of putting it in there. This was easily one of the more complex designs, but it looks great nonetheless, and the text from a magazine standpoint is normal, it's not too small or too large. I've also color coded a lot of parts to make the text pop more, thus the reason for the images being black and white, so they don't distract the reader from the text.

Since people base what they read off of size, contrast, location, and numbers among other things I found this was the best way to design my double page spread efficiently, and the result is simply excellent, clearly one of my best finalized designs!

Well I hope you all enjoyed this blog and my finalized double page spread. For my next blog I'll be showing the finished magazine as one! This will truly help you understand the genius of my design and the continuity I have between them, more or less. Sorry my ego went a little wild there, I just love this design!

I acquired this photo on an expedition to the hood a while ago, I figured it would BE GREAT FOR THE BACKGROUND, after all a classmate suggested I be a bit more REALISTIC-

Until next time, thanks for reading!

(50) The real deal, really?! Feature Story Interview

  Hey guys welcome to another blog, so after the photoshoots I conducted an interview with Tyrone for our feature story, he gave my great answers to my questions. The questions I had for him were more specific as they were meant for him and I gave him some about men's fashion since he is a man and happens to also like fashion in some sense. So let's get into the responses- -Start- Q 1. Alright Tyrone what's good bro, so what do you know about men's fashion? A. I actually know a lot, I like to post my drip on social media, and if I'm being honest I wanna try to be a model some time in the future Q 2.  That's cool, so what do you do on a more day to day basis? A. Man I'm hustling out here, I sell clothes online, work at an airport, and I exercise just about every other day, bring them girls back home you know, haha Q 3. So Tyrone, how would you describe yourself as a person? A. You see a lot of ***** out here are blessed, but me man, nah, I had work harder tha...

(9) Let's talk...Mise-en-scene

Hey today we're gonna learn about...MISE-EN-SCENE!! But what is Mise-en-scene? Simply put Mise-en-scene is literally "placing on stage" in French; all the elements that appear on camera and their arrangement. So everything from the makeup that goes into a scene to how the scene is setup. Alrighty so let me get into each of the features for you to give you a better understanding of everything that Mise-en-scene encompasses. Production design: Production designers are the people responsible for the visual concepts of a film, such as television or theater production. They work closely with the director and producer while they design a style for the elements incorporated in a film. Location: The location of a film sets the mood and supports the action. For example, in a abandoned McDonalds the location would give you suspicion and a horror mood. Studio: A film studio is either a entertainment company or a motion picture company. These companies have their own privately studio...

(57) He will try- Double Page Spread Draft

  Welcome, welcome, WELCOME!! Oh boy do I got a surprise for you! As promised I have made a draft for my double page spread, not one, not two, but three. There were just so many ideas in my head that I had to show you some of them, here check it out! This was the first version, I thought it was pretty good, but I felt there were some flaws or design choices that could've made it better, so I did a little redesign just to see if it would look better, now let's see if it did- This is the second version looks awesome to me, I felt it addressed some of the problems with the first, and the color might fit in better with our overall magazine, but let's try these fixes on the black and white version- Honestly I think I like this version a lot more, it's just so unique and makes for an awesome double page spread, some more refinements will need to be done, but we have a good idea for our final version now. Also you may have noticed the feature story in the double page spread is...
