10. Analysis
This is the outcome of my work which I got inspiration from
my flat plans I made. The headline is the largest piece of text
to make it stand out. I need people to be able to read the
headline when the paper is not just in front of them so it can
grab peoples attention from afar. The whitespace around
the headline makes the page look quite simple and basic
which is what I want. The drop capital draws attention to the
actual story which is what I need people to read as well. The
images are used to attract attention and make people want
to read the story. They are also there to fill the white space
because for this sort of page I shouldnโt include to much
white space because it is not as stylised as other pages that
do have a lot of white space. The font I used for the headline
needed to be quite urban to fit in with the topic of the story
but not to urban that it looks unprofessional because it is still
a broadsheet. The font I used for all pieces of text is still
clear a easy to read. The way I have laid it out makes it easy
for the eye to follow. The pull quote is placed under the top
image because there was a lot of white space. All the fonts I
used for any piece of my text is clear and easy to read and
understand. I used the adverts in this to make it look like a
more realistic broadsheet with other pieces of information
on the page. I used the text wrap tool on In Design to make
the text wrap around the top image so they donโt overlap
each other.

12. Analysis 2
โข I used the same font for the headline because it suits the
type of story as it is a hip hop artist in the story. I used
two main spaces for the text which makes it easy for the
viewers eyes to follow because it goes from left to right.
The images are then opposite the pieces of text to fit in
around them and get rid of white space. I put the pull
quote in the middle to make it stand out in between the
two sections of text. It is placed in the middle of the text
and images so it feels quite central. The adverts in the
corner are used to make it look like a real broadsheet so
that is why I used them. The images are used to grab
peoples attention and if they see someone smiling they
might want to know what the story is about because the
image could give off a positive effect. All the text is laid
out clearly and straight using a base-line. It is a formal
piece of information so it needs to get the information
across and not let the reader get distracted by the
features on the page. The strap-line is quite small but it
does the job of informing the reader what the story is
about just very briefly. The adverts are also there to fill
up any white space just to make the page look a bit more
busier, however they donโt draw your attention away
from the story because they are quite small.
16. โข I added these features to make the page look
more like a newspaper broadsheet which has
been published for a real newspaper. I added
the date, price, colour codes and the title of
the newspaper.
