Photograph 2 x double page spreads (DPS)

Create 'detailed' thumbnails of these DPS - with labels showing text wraps, images, graphic images, margins, columns, etc

Look at the way text/ typography has been used in the DPS - does it help or hinder the story/ content?

In lesson we will discuss how serif/sans serif and use of text can really enhance the articles.

Now using your skill with typography and InDesign you are to recreate your DPS chosen and enhance it using stronger typography.
