17. Experiments
With my first attempt at creating
the broad sheet front page, I have
found my chosen layout to be
difficult to work with. I dislike the
images above the masthead, and
I don’t like the placement of the
pull quote. Therefore I will not be
continuing on with this design and
will be staring a new one.
21. Experiments
This is my final broadsheet design. For this one I
chose not to use a flat plan, instead creating
the basic grid I wanted and then placing my
items within these guides. I decided to do it
this way after attempting twice to create a
broadsheet front cover using flat plans that I
has designed, which I felt didn’t look as good.
The first thing I did was add the mast head
and the logo onto the page, then the green
banner with text underneath it. I then added
the image, pull quote, copy and cross head.
Leaving the headline for last so that I could
make sure I had the correct sizes and
placement. I also think that when looking at
this, the image is to large, and could possibly
be better if it were lighter colours, or even
black and white. I think the changes I could
make to this would be the image, the green
pull quote, and possibly have more on the
page itself.
22. Final Broadsheet
This is my final Broadsheet design, I like it
because it combines all of my experiments
and is interesting to look at, whilst keeping the
stereotypical look of a broadsheet newspaper
cover. I chose to add green details on the
page to add splashes of colour and to make it
more interesting to look at. I also added
smaller element to the design, like the price,
date and smaller article page details.
