DOUBLE SPREAD PAGE FIRST DRAFT

During the process, I also included another picture that is faded out behind the editorial on the right hand side for affect as I did not want the page to look empty
and plain. In this draft, I used basic music magazine conventions such as a title, headline , editorial and pulled out quote.  however, as you can see from my final product the double spread page is simplistic however, with all the more detailed magazine conventions included such as page number, issue number, and photographers credit makes the page look more detailed but clean. Throughout the process ,  a lot of things changed. First ,the photograph was badly edited as I was still learning how to use the blurring/smoothing tool to make it look natural. The editorial was not in article columns which makes this draft look messy.

Amara
The Crushed Soul
“I’m back and I’m better”
 After months of hiding, pain and the malicious rumours songstress Amara has finally opened up about her heartbreak that happened last year July when pictures of her boyfriend Aaron cheating with a supermodel, Jasmine Roselynn has been leaked on social media. Amara explains that she was “embarrassed” and “humiliated” in front of her devoted fans. We have gained a deeper insight of Amara’s life as she agreed to have this exclusive interview after her heartbreak

Amara started her career with Aaron as he was her music producer, The “With your Love” single won three American Music awards earlier this year in March however; things were getting awfully rocky between the two. It seems that the break up has been a drastic change in Amara’s  life as she moved from Atlanta to LA back in February. She tells us "It was a change I had to make for my sanity - to keep my distance”

Optimistically, the worse the break up , the better the art: even if she is experiencing pain the passion within her did not stop Amara from what she does the best. Amara is currently working on her new album “Exquisite Pain” is the product of a period of intense grief that she has experience throughout the last 5 years ,so bad that she states that “I had to pack everything associated with the relationship and, left it in an untouched box” 

Throughout the interview Amara did not show any tears or pain, she was strong and held her head high This love triangle did not stop Amara from her passion for music as she has continued to rise in the Hip-Hop music industry with the hot new single “interlude” ft.PartyNextDoor. “I had to hold myself together and put all the pain into my music. I am so proud of this release and ready to move forward.”
