Finishing Off The Magazine Article

We knew what we had to do for the magazine article. We knew that we wanted to have a picture of a money tree blended in with the bottle of Reggae Reggae Sauce as the tree trunk. We thought to have the tree in the middle of our double page with the tree going over both sides of the page. Instead of doing it one page at a time, like we did last time, we decided to find a template of a double page which we could work on. Here is the picture of the double page that we found.

After putting the money tree on the middle of our page, we needed a magazine title, and page numbers at the top, as expected with virtually all magazines. We didnt know what to call it as this interview could fit into many genres such as, business, entrepreneurs, cookery etc. In the end we decided to go with the business theme and called the magazine, "BusinessNow". We then inserted the date and page numbers. Then we needed a title and decided to call it "From Rags, To Riches", which was the same title as our previous magazine article. We decided to have the words "From Rags" on the left side of the page and on one side of the bottle, and have "To Riches" on the other. Here is what the Magazine article looked like so far.

As we were putting down our questions and answers from the interview, we realised that in our previous attempt at the magazine article the questions did not stand out very much as they were in the same font aand size, only made bold. We decided to make the questions stand out by having them in different colours, the same colours as the on his Reggae Reggae sauce bottle. We then thought to have the questions in the font used in the title to make the text sand out and have the answers in a much more simple font in plain black. We then inserted a picture that we found on the internet and put an effect around the edges to make the image blend in with the article. We then edited the picture of the advert to win Levi's Reggae Reggae Bus, by croping it and changing the text in the yellow box. We thought we were done but we both looked at it thinking if there was any way we could add to it making it more conventional of a magazine which gave us the idea to use pull quotes. We used two of these quotes from the interview answers, in a simple black font but made bold and enlarged. Here is the final product of our magazine article.
