Indesign Recreating Double Page Spreads

In this task I took the work and techniques of an existing double page spread from a magazine and applied them to my own double page spread I created in Adobe Indesign. The task overall was to improve our skills with the software Adobe Indesign and teach us the basics.

                                                 My Version

Using the techniques from the above double page spread I created a double page spread on the band ONE OK ROCK. The image and the layout of the text I believe is very well done and I am happy with the final piece. If I came back to this excercise I would concentrate more with filling the white blanks around the poster to make it feel my lifely.

                                                 My Version

On this double page spread the main techniques to master was making text follow a path and to convert an image within a text box. I replaced the rat with a snake and called the spread 'Snake Rock'. I was comfortable performing both of these techniques and didn't have any real problems.

I am happy with everything I have done in this excersise because it is only the second time I have used Indesign and the progress of my skill is increasing smoothly. I have learnt how to place, edit and manipulate text while importing images to a double page spread.
