Review design

Click to enlarge
When designing my review I was originally going to go with one page, but due to the length of the review and my stubbornness I decided to just make it two pages instead, but this actually worked in my favour as it allowed me to put a few more pictures in and make the design more interesting, which I hope worked.

I decided that I needed to utilize whitespace in order to make my review readable and interesting to look at, so I made sure to keep a lot of Macro whitespace at the top and the bottom so that the review looks quite compact and ensures that when printing it, nothing will get cut off.

I also utilized micro whitespace with the spaces between the pictures and the text so that the pictures and the text will be much easier on the eye to read.

After I set up the text layout I decided to add the pictures and did not want boring rectangular pictures so I decided to use a different frame to give it a different look, which I believe worked well.
