Finished Newspaper-




This is the first two pages of a newspaper that i have created. I have tried to use green throughout the pages in order to make the newspaper look realistic and corporate. I have tried to use a serif font throughout which is typical of existing local newspapers. This font is also used within the body of text for the stroies. I analysed other newspapers and was able to see a particular layout for the first page of any newspaper. This page often has a side bar on the left including a contents, a weather forecast and contact information for the newspaper.

I chose to include three stories on this first page. Two seperate short stories, and then the remainder of the story that was shown on the cover of the newspaper. I have also incorporated images into this page as it makes it more appealing to the audience. Although not every story in a newspaper has an accompanying image, i felt it made the page look more attractive and broke up the extensive amount of text. Importantly i have accompanied every image with a caption to ensure its purpose is clear.
