My final inside page.

I am extremely happy with how my inside page has turned out. I feel that the way in which I toned down the colour when making my inside page is very effective. This make it easier to read as it is less bold and the page doesn't look so crowded. This page is more about the writing than the images, unlike my front cover that was mostly about the images as it is supposed to draw people to the newspaper. I have included three stories on the inside page, two of which have images. I think that the bar at the top of the page that shows whats inside the newspaper is effective as the images on the bar show some of the stories that will be in the paper. I feel the images of the lottery winners is especially effective as it is inviting. I am very pleased with the finished piece.

The 1st website page.

I have began to construct my first website page. I am very happy with the result so far as I have made it look similar to my front page. I have kept the colours constant between to two pages and I have have used the same fonts that I had on my front cover and converted it onto my website page. I have used stories from my front and inside page and I have created ones for the purpose of the website page. I still have more to do but i am confident that the page will look effective.

I had to capture the screen in two parts, this is the reason that the bottom part doesn't match up to the top, however it does on iWeb.  

My final front cover.

I am so happy with this cover page. I feel that my stories are newsworthy and people would want to read into the stories. I am extremely pleased with how the main image looks as I had to play around with it slightly and i was worried that it wouldn't work on the page, however I think it looks affective and due to the fact that he is smiling it promotes the story as it makes it look light hearted therefore people will want to read it.

Nearly finished

All I need to do now to make sure that my front page is entirely finished is to add a website address at the top of the page, add a website name to the advertisement at the bottom of the page and finish the experience days advertisement to the right of the page.

UPDATED: Newspaper with second advertisement to the right.

I took and image using a borrowed professional camera of origami birds hanging on a relatives ceiling. I thought that they looked really artistic so i thought that they would look great in a photography shot. I am happy with the look of it.

UPDATED: newspaper with new advertisement to the right.

I am really happy about how my front cover is turning out I am excited to finish the page as i then want to get feedback from people to see what their opinions of the newspaper cover are.

I took a picture of a student that was walking around the college in a previous project and I thought that it would work well on my newspaper as I would be able to cut him out relatively easy and pose him on top of a plain coloured background. Here he is cut out and I will now put him on a light blue rectangle on the right hand side of the front page and I will use it to advertise a South Downs college open day.
