As I feel that my article is coming to a conclusion, I decided to create the layout of the page in which it will feature in. My preferences for the layout were that the image would be on one page, yet it would not fill the page, for this decision I was highly inspired by Wire's article layout. However I faced difficulty when making the image more portrait because it meant cutting out the model. I also decided to add a different layer for each word of my title in order to allow more flexibility. Creating a text box over the image also aloud me to include an introduction for the article that would not disturb the layout of the article, and by increasing the opacity of the text box, the whole image was still in sight.
Due to my previous problem with the image, I changed it to a similar image but with a longer shot, I also stretched it enough so as to go over on to the next page. I experimented with the font of my title but decided to stick with the original font, but with this font I experimented with the opacity and the placement of each word on the page. I also made each word of the title overlay, almost giving it a logo-like effect. By adding some parts of my main article, and placing it as the traditional column-like structure, I was able to get an idea of how every aspect of this article would look on the page, main articles are usually two pages, so this also showed me the amount of content I need to write. In order make it look more youth- inspired and less serious I changed the font of the main text to Courier, this font added some graphic elements to the page, which coordinated with the style of the title.
