Layout Of A Magazine

 Conventions 

    Diversity. The simplicity of diversity is something that can not always be captured with every layout of  a magazine. At times readers will find themselves captivated by one page and horrific but the next. The layout of a story should not be the same length and organized the same way. Magazines are meant to be fun and creative, not remind people of a novel. The layout of the magazine should be something original and trendy, a spread about the new Instagram models should include maybe a frame of the app rather than an uncut image of that individual. Or if there is a recipe for a new meal the ingredients should be animated with descriptions on the quantity of that specific ingredient. Layout is the initial of a page spread the information may be credible and provide great results but that page can easily be flipped if the layout does not look appealing. 

 The following example showcases the versatility that can occur with each page layout. Whether it be quotations on top of a natural background or images being displayed across the page, designing your spread takes time to truly enhance a plain white paper.

    Popular elements utilized in articles are sidebars, break up text that draws readers eyes to the content, an unstructured template or highlighted areas; Bold coloring is also a great choice when lay outing pages. The more dramatic the layout is the better but the complexity must also contain simplicity in the slightest. Too much of something good is not always good!
