Double Page Spread
The information on my double page spread will come from the interview that I have with the band. However, it will not be written like an interview. From the information I have gathered from them I am going to write about each band member, how they started, what they have been up to and their feelings towards music and gigs etc. The type of shot, for my image, I plan to use is a shot of the band in action, as this gives a visual representation of the band's genre, attitude and skills.
