Models:
The model used for the feature page will be the same model on the front cover. I decided to stick to the basics of magazines where their front cover holds a photo or wording for the feature story. This is used to attract attention.
Font:
The font will differ depending on what part of the double spread aspect it will contain. For instance, the heading of the page should be a bigger and colorful font, one that differs from the background of course, but subheadings which is typically used to describe the part of the story that is being told. Subheadings can also be questions. Despite that, the subheadings will be a different color as well as a different font different size. The font characteristics that will be needed for the actual feature will be a basic font that is legible and stands out from the background.
Photo Shoot:
This photo shoot will differ from the others. Since it is a feature story, I want the person who is being features to be comfortable with the image, plus I want it to be an image that has a major significance to them and that is represents their journey as well as their accomplishments.
Layout:
The layout will be different than a normal magazines double spread since I am considering going for a more square shaped magazine. I realize going for a different shape may attract attention and it will make the magazine more unique.Going more in depth with the double spread, I really like the layout I have placed on the left. Its simple but can get the point across. However, where the feature story will take place, it seems like too much words. I will be sure to use a different layout and try to add more photos of the model or some graphics to add color to the pages.
