Drafting of Page Layouts


I followed the conventions of a rap music magazine in the way that I had my artist in the middle of the page facing the camera. I made sure that the bar code was at the bottom corner of the page so that there was no distraction from the cover. 


I decided to put my features and content along the left hand side of the contents page just like other rap music magazines did. I then decided that I would put multiple photos on the right hand side of the page to entice the reader into reading the articles. I conventionally put page numbers next to the content titles so that the audience could access the desired content quickly. However, I unconventionally decided to change the size of the content titles and page numbers in accordance to its popularity. I believe this would entice readers into reading the big stories. 


I decided to conventionally use columns to display the written information of the double page spread. However, I decided against using just one image as I believe that three images will give the audience a greater understanding of the artist being discussed.
