DPS page

This is what my DPS in the end ended up looking like. I went for a simple three-columns design with text on one page and the title and photos on the other. I am going to change the photos because they aren't very representative for my genre. I decided to put in a footer at the bottom of my DPS to make it a lot more interesting. I also added some "distorted" effects to the background as well. A thing I've seen especially Metalhammer do a lot in their magazines.


This is what my DPS looked like when i adopted it from my flat plan. I found this layout too difficult to work with. Especially working with two columns instead of three. I also wanted a more compact design and therefore i moved my photos on to the other page and extended the "timeline" down to the bottom.

This  is what my DPS looked like before I decided to change my overall design of the page into the grey/black layout I have in the rest of my magazine. Just to make it more in touch with the rest.
