I have researched into double page spreads that use female models. I found these to be particually rare, however I have collected some examples. I want to use a female model because I feel it will challenge the typical conventions.
I have found the typical conventions to include; A large image of the female placed over a whole a4 side (typically the right hand side)/ The model posing in an abstract way that draws attention to the image/ A write up in an 'interview' style where the magazine asks questions to the star/ Text placed in collums over the left hand side of the double/ Text to be consistant however some variety in size and boldness/ A caption next to the image placed in a small box/ Text following the 'slang' style language throughout/ Interesting quotations placed in large, bold font toward the top of the pages/ A '>>' sign indicating to turn the page for more/ A well edited, framed image with carefully placed mise en scene/ and more to follow.
I will try to follow and in some cases challenge these conventions throughout my making process.
