Double Page Spread Style Model


This is an interview with Beth Ditto of The Gossip featuring in Marie Claire. Having looked at several double page spreads featuring interviews i have noticed that the format tends to stay the same the majority of the time. The title font is large but uses a simple typeface and is only shown in black and white. The font for the main content, again is simple, similar to an arial or calibri and is put into a newspaper style format of columns. This interview goes onto several pages and the first page goes into a lot of detail into the background history of Beth Ditto and her band. The image, i love, the colours in which it is shot are subdued, pastel colours and the details on the face are clear and crisp. It is a really lovely piece of photography.
I think that interview pages for a lot of magazines needed to be more creative and original, they all appear to stick to a certain format. I love the photography used within this double page spread and it has inspired me to be adventurous with camera settings and lighting experiments to create really beautiful photography to compliment the text.
