DPS Final



  • Due to my page looking too black and white, i changed the images i used. I took 3 separate images and cut out the models and put them together. 
  • I wanted my female model to look more dramatic with the males behind. 
  • I also refrained from over sexualising my female model as i didn't want to give in to the stereotypes of women. 
  • I included a opening to give the readers an insight into what the article will be about.  
  • I really liked the idea of two photos on the DPS, so i found a way to inculcate the second photo into my DPS. 
  • I edited my female models hair also.

DPS - Changes and Updates

The changes made are shown in the purple rectangles. 



  • I don't think that the first change looks good, as the picture looks out of place and a bit random. As the picture is the same as the background picture. Its just smaller, so it looks pointless.  
  • The second set of changes also looks a bit random. Even though i really like the autographs, they look out of place and they don't compliment the layout of the article in my opinion. 
  • Overall i will just keep my DPS simple, by removing the new changes and keeping the layout as it was before. As it's simple, looks neat and professional.

UPDATE'S TOO DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD

This was my first change. I blurred out the image and place the text over the image, so it looked like a water mark, however i didn't like the appearance as it looks unstructured and messy creating a non professional DPS.  I found that the social media sites also made my page tacky and is not a traditional theme on DPS in music magazines. 




Due to my first outcome, I decided to remove the social media account logos and make the page really simple. I placed the text on the clothing of my models, so it didn't conflict with the beauty of the photo of the artists.  I still kept the QR code as this was an easier way of getting the consumers to go onto the website and view the official interview recording. 


However I did like the signatures that i had on the photo as shown in my previous posts (as shown bellow):


So I will try and find a way of placing this in my DPS as I think it's a nice touch.
