Double Page Spread Draft

For my Double Page Spread (DPS) i designed two drafts by using Photoshop and sketching them. I firstly, sketched my DPS to give myself a brief template of how a DPS should roughly look like and to also give myself guidance when i then go on to create my DPS. I then used Photoshop to design my second draft. I used Adele as an example artist and also as a way of filling space to see where things would be positioned on a DPS; for example how far down the cover line will come on the page. I also used these two drafts to convey how I want to layout my DPS and what the scale of every feature will be; e.g. how large the main image will take up and where it will be placed on the page - How the article will be aligned in columns around this.
