Monday 24th January
Knowing that i am going to do a section on weather i have researched weather symbols, In most commercial papers weather is represented with images, as they are an easy way to understand the weather for the reader. Below are some of the main weather images i intend to use.

In todays lesson, I have created a flat plan for the layout of my inside page. I have looked at examples of inside stories from other papers such as The News and The Sun, and based my layout upon these. I have also brainstormed a few story and photo ideas which i can include in my news article such as;
- Local lotto winners
- Article on M.S. (multipul sclerosis) and new medical break throughs
- Article on students in local area
- Article on Snow and how it has effected Britain.

After coming back after half term and looking at my newspaper, i have decided to altar it. This lesson i have changed my master head, fonts and some colours involved in my front page for a better visual effect, to make my paper look more authentic, As i felt it did not look like a real news paper. These changes can be seen on my latest screen grab shown to the right. I have still kept the website and edition in my master head, and the colour but have changed the font and the symmetry of the whole top of my paper. I have also changed the xfactor story from being in red to normal black and white as i felt that it stood out too much an drew the attention away from the main story. Because of the colour changes happening throughout my mast head and side story i had to change the shade of blue used in the jobs advertisement, the more pastel colours used the more everything blends together well and doesn't bring any attention away from the main story, picture and headline. I have still yet to find appropriate images which i would feel happy using as a front page picture, but will carry on working on all parts of my coursework without the main image for now.
