Making the double page spread
   After I decided which image I was going to use for the
    double page spread I edited it to make the aesthetics
    more professional.
   I set up my columns
   Headline and first paragraph of article on the 1st page and the
    second and third paragraph of the article on the 2nd page
   I decided to make the headline big, bold and aligned in the top left corner of
    the page in colour black so it stands out, I didn’t use a subhead because I
    also made it part of the headline.
   I used a drop cap in capital letters in colour white contrasting with the
    background image however I did not use a end dot instead I ended the
    article with a rating for the mixtape review, which acted as my end dot.
   I have a gutter
   I incorporated my pull out quote into my article using quotation marks “ ” but
    I didn’t make it stand out
   My page numbers are in white and they noticeable
   And I decided to break the codes and conventions of music magazines
    double page spreads so Instead of placing the 2nd part of the article in 2
    columns I placed it as a normal paragraphs.
