The first thing I did when
opening the Quark software
was to drag two pages down
from the ‘blank facing page’
option at the top right
corner. I put the two pages
next to each other on the
diagram to create a double
page spread.
I began by importing my image to the software. I did this by
saving the image as a JPEG and then Importing it into the
document. I then used the shape tool to create a white
rectangle at the bottom left where I put a quote in that my
feature (Jake Banks) had said using the text tool. I edited my
text and made it in capitals and bold to stannd out on the
page.
Next, I added another quote Jake had said and a stand first. I also had
the name of Jake written in the top right corner, so the audience
knew who the article was about if they didn't already. I added a by
line at the bottom right of my image to claim that the image was
taken by me and the article written about Jake Banks was
interviewed by me.The text is on a 90 degree angle by selecting the
text with the ‘item tool’ at the top of the tool bar on the left and
hovering closely to one of the corners of the text box and turning it,
that is how I got the text to face upright.
Finally, I added the article, that I had originally copied up on word after the
interview took place. I made sure that my article was in three columns so it
would all fit, also it matched the codes and conventions of other
magazines that I had done research on that were similar to mine. I
introduced a drop capital after into my article at the top, and the text was
written in 10pt. I imported the text by copying it from word, and then
importing it by pasting it into the ready made columns on the right page of
my double page spread.The last thing I did was added the page number
and my title to mark the page and the bottom right.
