Double page spread layout

Page layout (photos and text)
Photos - The photos I will use in my double page spread will be of the band I am using for my main article. They will be placed around the text, catching attention but still allowing the reader to focus on my article. They will range in size, but will not be too big in contrast with my text
Title - The title of my double page spread will be the band name. I will also have a catch phrase in smaller text than the name of the band, as if this article is a main feature of the magazine every week, and the reader will know that in all main articles they will start off with this catch phrase, which is something readership will recognise with my magazine. It will also start off with a short introduction of the band, recognising their reputation and what they have been known to represent.
Article - The article of my magazine will start off with an introduction of the band, and will be of the interview genre, where my questions will be read in bold type, with the answer of the band in normal type. I will also include quotes from well known people or icons, casting their opinion of the band.
Background - The background will be something that contrasts with the text, so as you can see the text clearly and easily. I have not decided on a colour, but it will be something that goes with the front cover, to keep a running theme of the main article that is being advertised on the front cover, and then to be the same on the double page spread article.
