The splash page is an introduction to my double page spread, and so mine only consists of an image, a masthead and a small section of text.
I chose a picture that my friend took of me taking the photo shoot that we put in black and white. Then I had to edit the picture and adjust the brightness levels.
Then, when we applied the picture to the template of the splash page, we flipped it around.
The masthead consists of various sizes and various fonts. 'A day', is size 90, 'in the eyes of', is size 70 and 'of', is size 132 and they're all in the font of minion pro. However, 'CHLOE WHITE', is size 165 and in the font of 'steelfish'.
Then I had to create the small section of text, which is an introductory paragraph to the main article on the double page spread. I placed this just below the masthead in the font of minion pro and I enlarged the first letter, which made it stand out more.
Just below the section of text I put a line that tells you that the full story will be on the next page. The advantage of having this small section of text is that it entices the audience into reading the full article. This is in the font of 'Babas Kai'. I then put a small arrow next to '22' to visually show that the arrow leads you to the next page where the full article is.
The last thing that I added to the page was a line of text that says who the pictures were photographed by and who the words were by. I placed this in the top right hand corner in the font of minion pro and a size 12. However, the names were made bigger, made bold and put in a size 14.
This is my completed splash page
