Main Task: Double Page Spread - Images

To keep everything together house style wise, I chose to use red, grey and black for the colour scheme of my double page spread. However, I still put a twist onto the images by using colour in some of the cases.

The background for the second page of the spread was just a light grey colour which differed slightly from the colour theme as it was a light grey block without any other infliction from images.
The background colour

The second Image I used as the background for the first page was a large image of the band. I took a few more pictures to get the image chosen.

From there, I put a black and white filter onto it, which made it compatible with the grey background as he colours were consistent.
The Final Image.

I used my next image twice. Once on the first page under the title, and the second to spread between the second and first page at the bottom. I kept each of the images a simple white with black outline. The old sailor style of the drawing was enough for it to stand out by itself.
The Octopus Logo

The fourth image I used was of one of the four people. Out of all of the images used, it is one of the largest.

From there I cropped it down and put a stroke effect onto it in black to give it a boarder to show that it was a singular image, while at the same time unifying it with the other three next to it.
The Final Image.
One of those three images was of the second of the four people and I used this image twice to get the separate images.
The Original Image
The first time I cropped it, I cropped it to get one of the faces. From the crop, I added the stroke effect to give it a boarder for the same reasons as before.
The Final Image.
I did this again for the second image of the two.

For the last image on the page, I chose another picture from the pictures I didn't originally plan to use for the magazine.

And again, I cropped it down and put the stroke effect onto it.
The final Image.
All together, the boarders and use of colour unify the image while separating them. Which symbolises the separate band members while also keeping them together. These images are the only ones that use colour on the entirety of the two pages which draws attention to them while giving them an edge away from the article, or normal mood of the magazine.
