I love the colours in this double page layout because I think that it really draws me to the picture. I like the set up of the photo, the band members are positioned showing character in an unusual way. I like the style of having a big photo spread across both pages with only the title on the left page. I think that the title is still bold and stands out, even with such a great background. I like the article about the band being placed onto the right side of the page. I think it works well really well. I would like to do a double page layout where I have a layout similar to this one as I think it really stands out.
The layout of this double page spread out is more busy. I like the different sizes of the photos taken on the left side of the double page. It made me interested in the band. I like the way a title is used on the top left hand side of the page, if I was to include this in my magazine I would place the name of the band there. I liked the set up of the article; a simple title across the top of the page, and the writing set in columns, including photos next to the text. I also noticed that the page has used the colours pink, white and black, I find this makes the page more creative.
