Research and planning: double page spread story

Here we have our exclusive interview with ________ just days after his debut tour dates have been released!
We're you expecting your first gig to sell out?
Well I was hoping tickets were going to sell, but being sold out in the first 2 weeks of release was amazing! I am hoping for similar to happen with the tour but you can't always have what you want!

When is your album released?
It is released on the 28th of February in stores, but released a week later on iTunes!.

Were you ever expecting to make it big?
Since I Was younger I have always appreciated DJing and since a youngster experimented making and mixing songs, then I was playing in the clubs and got approached, it's all been a blur since then! Amazing experience.

Research and Planning: Contents Page

This is the work i have done on my contents page so far, I used a font I got on DaFont.com. I used the eraser on 50% opacity and rubbed out some of the letters for the subheadings, this gave and effect of grey font with a modern style. I used guide lines so all my titles were in line. I then went on to create faded boxes below the Titles for the contents and a small photo to go for ease of reading the contents.
