DPS ideas

The layout of my DPS has changed because of the imagery. When adding the image I have had to move the text around so you can see the subject clearly. 

Experimenting with DPS layout

 This was my first layout for my DPS, after printing this I realized that the font was too big. I also did not like the fact file of the artist at the bottom of the first column as I felt it did not look right. The headline is not bold enough and does not stand out on the page. This layout has no page furniture such as the masthead or issue date/number.

For my second layout I changed the font size to 16 which looked better but is still larger than normal. This makes the text fit perfectly in the one column. The fact file looks better as I have centered the text and put it at the beginning for background information. This layout also contains the masthead of the magazine so it is recognizable.

This is my final DPS layout. It contains the magazine masthead and date/issue number along with 'exclusive' making it more professional like a real music magazine. The text fits perfectly in the one column along with a drop cap so the reader knows where to start and an introduction in a different colour. The headline is bold and in the middle of the page making it stand out showing it's importance. I have also included a pull quote which attracts the audience and gives an insight to what the article is about.
