Here is the sketch for my double page spread:

And finally here is my double page spread:

The mast head for this magazine is also horizontal, bold and bright.
This magazine title is only one letter but is also in capitals like mine.
The slogan for Q magazine is aslo at the top by the mast head. The colour scheme is minimalistic, this magazine uses four main colours, one reason for this is to keep cost down.
Q magazine and my magazine both use bands at the bottom of the front cover, which shows i have followed the conventions of real media.Unlike magazines like this one i have only used one image. However it is also a media close up like mine and like most other music magazine. Like other music magazine the band is alos looking at the camera to connect with the reader and
enagage them.
