Developments of my DPS


I then wrote the contents of the article in an interview format as I felt like this was a very liked and popular style of writing in my chosen genre. I differentiated the  questions and answers by having the questions written in bold and the answers in an emphasised font. This is commonly how magazines present an interview style format so in doing this I felt like it helped to present my magazine in a realistic and believable format. 

                              
I then added the page numbers that were stated in the contents page as this helped to show continuity throughout my magazine and it also made the DPS as a whole appear more realistic. I also added the masthead of my magazine smaller in the corner next to the page numbers as again this is a very common feature among DPS articles in a magazine.  

                         
When I finished writing the contents of my article, I then realised I hadn't accounted for the central point of the two pages where the crease would fall if it was to be made into a real magazine. To make sure that my writing was lined up properly, I measured what number my page started on which in this case was 0 and finished on which was 42. I then new that my central point would fall halfway between them numbers so I then put a line at number 21 which cut my page in half so I could then adjust the lining of my text so that it would be clear and legible if i were to make it into a real magazine.
At the end of the article, I also added the word 'continued...' as this allows the reader to know that the article continues onto the net page.
