1. Double Page Magazine Spread
– Ancillary Task

2. Fonts
We chose this font for the facts along the side of the
double page magazine spread as we wanted something
that was simple and clear as they are quite serious
facts. Once again it is black writing on top of red and
yellow backgrounds – sticking to the colour scheme.
For the title we used quite a child-like font again,
similar to the font of the newspaper advert I did. I
decided to use the same font so you can clearly see
a connection between all the advertisements which
I think is quite conventional for real media.
We used plain font for the article so it is clear for
viewers to read. We used mainly black font, however
to show which part is the interview we used blue and
red font to show a clear separation between the
main text and the interview.

3. Images
For the double page magazine spread we
incorporated 5 images. We photographed 3 of
them, including the chips, burger and drink. Then
we used an image of the fast food take-away bag
and chip box from the internet. We chose to use
these images as they are relevant to the subject of
fast food, so clearly show to the audience what the
documentary is about, in a visual way.

4. Comparison to real media
The similarities between my double page
magazine spread and this real media is that:
• They both include columns.
• They both combine text and images.
• They both have a fact file or character profiles
along the side.
The differences between my double page
magazine spread and this real media is that:
• Our double page spread has more text.
• The real media incorporates a large image,
where as ours includes more smaller images.
• The colours we used are brighter and bolder
and represent our theme well, where as the
real media used plain and simple colours.
