double page spread mood board

This is a mood board I made of double page spreads from magazines that are from the same genre of my magazine. From these I can see that the pages are mainly taken up by a big picture which can sometimes be bigger than half of the double page. Most of these have quotes above the title in big font which is sometimes even bigger than the name of the main feature. This is then followed by the name of the feature and a brief introduction underneath of what will be talked about in the interview or the story about the main feature. The main colour schemes of these magazines aren mainly black and white with splashes of colour. The font on the pages dont usually need alot of colour on them because the pictures are usually covering must of the pages so they dont need loads of colour. The double page spreads don't usually have alot of writing in them, its usually just a small interveiw or a brief story coverinfg news about the bands in the studios or touring ect. The main idea's I get from these are that I should make sure I shouldn'y make the interview otr story too long as too much writing could bore the reader. I should keep to the same colour scheme I have followed for the cover and my contents page. Not all of these have  the names of the magazine on them but I think I might continue to use the banners I have throught the magazine and include the name on the top.
