Double page spreads

This is my starting point and I have developed from this one

These are few ideas and thoughts for my double page spread included an article I have written on the page, with effects on the black background but also the image I have used to keep the pages linked together and made sure the page break wouldn't cut any ones head off or anything. The first idea is just a really simple and standard looking double page spread apart from the paint the splatter in the background which really stands out from the dark background and the splatter also makes the white text stand out as well making the whole double page really eye catching to read and interest the audience and a basic layout of three columns, the splatter in the background really stands out but also links with the music genre indie as its quiet unusual but very modern. The next idea I have moved around with some words to fit in the quote from the band which I found in other music magazines and also previous projects and decided to go with a white rectangle but also tilt it to keep in with creative genre of music and i thought the white background with the purple writing is good as the white makes a change from all the purple and quickly draws the attention of the reader and it immediately stands out to the audience. Then i had an idea of having a little snapshot of the the band live to add something extra to look like a profile but it also professional and i had this idea from other magazines as it gives somthing extra to the spread and the white snapshot again stands out and draws attention of the reader it also makes it look interesting. The next idea after this one, is very similar to that idea but have added a white rectangle behind the letter 'T' thats in purple to firstly see what it looks like but also to make it standout again all in the aim to attract attention of the target audience, the last idea was more of an experiment with rectangles and seeing how it would look with again some more text on the double page spread and this idea came from other magazines I have seen our brought and seeing if it suits my magazine.
