Article Draft Boxes

Here is the first draft i have done of my article - i like this layout because it fits in with my housestyle and i think my target audience would like the layout. It also fits in well with the rule of thirds. The title will be a neat and sophiscated text (like her autograph). The picture of the left page would look best if its a mid-shot of Amelia in her comfort zone as the article/interview will be about her homelife and how she got famous and how it has changed her. I also think a long shot would look good too show her surroundings, making the audience feel asif they know her. The text on the left page would simply be a breif description about her and her rise to fame. The pull quote will be something intresting from the article what will make the audience want to read on to find out more about it. On the right hand side i have three colums which is conventional of an interview to have, also because it fits in with the rules of thirds, i will have a question in bold and then the answer underneath in italics. The pull quote in the middle also fits in well with the housestyle as it will make it stand out within all the text. The picture maybe a close-up, but it would also fit well as a long shot showing her surroundings.
Here is the second draft of my article - this one fits in ok with the rules of thirds but the housestyle is not as good and effective. The title is in the same place because it is the only place were it would fit nicely. The picture would look like its right in the middle of be page, asif its two different articles - spliting the pages. The pull quote im guessing would look quite effective as it would stand out, yet right above it there is text giving a brief description also making the whole left hand side look like a one page article. The layout on the righthand side is very simular to the first draft, there is three colums and a picture in the right hand bottom corner yet the pull quote is over lapping the picture, which would make it look cramped and could potentionaly loose the effect of the page. Therefore my first draft is the best for it.
