Compare and Contrast

My double page spread was inspired by Top of the Pops double page spread. Both of the article title’s are in the same place, however, Top of the Pops title is a pull quote whereas mine is not. My strapline is under the banner whereas Top of the Pops is in the banner. My double page spread has an intro and a drop cap, however, Top of the Pop’s does not. Both of the double page spread’s have information in the bottom banner underneath the article. My article only has two columns whilst Top of the Pops has four columns with one column being on the opposite page. Both articles have two sub images, however, they are in different places – mine are both together unlike Top of the Pops. Both of the double page spreads have a pull quote on the opposite page and my double page spread has an anchor for the dominant image. Both of the dominant images are on the same page, but Taylor Swift is making eye contact with the audience unlike my model. Obviously, Top of the Pop’s magazine is more professional looking than mine. I am aware that I need a clearer dominant image that is less grainy but overall I quite like the layout of my double page spread.
