6. Conclusion
This analysis of TV listing magazine articles has helped us to
understand the structure of a double page spread and how to make it
look professional. When creating our double page spread we will
ensure that we use a similar font and layout to existing magazine
articles to make it look as realistic as possible. Bright colours, bold
headlines and interesting, eye-catching images will also be used to
capture the reader’s attention.
