Double Page Spread Interview - Progress 3

I have finally added a pull quote in the middle of the interview. I love the pull quote there because it fills out the 'dead space' that I thought looked very unattractive and plain which is what I didn't want for the double page spread. But I am content with what I have done to the  pull quote. I wanted it to be the centre of attention and something that looked neat and well presented. I feel I have accomplished this with the pull quote being bold, red and out there. Instead of putting a box around the pull quote though I wanted to put it in between two bold black lines. This to me, gives the reader the quite literal 'reading in-between the lines' effect. I feel like the reader may feel they're having an exclusive quote into the artist's life which the reader can't get anywhere else. It took a lot of time to put the pull quote in the middle of the text because I found it difficult deciding what border looks the neatest, but I like the decision I went with. I also found it hard make the black border lines the right size.


I am content with the progress I have made so far. I love the pull quote that I have made as it has gotten rid of the empty space at the bottom of the interview, making it look a look more attractive and more conventional.
For the next time I post on my blog, I intend on adding the Brit Hits website and the page numbers that are the same as the one on the picture in the contents page. I also want the footer to look a lot like the one on the contents page to make it more consistent.
