Week 7

Wednesday 13^th October

Today I am going to look at the type of typography that my newspaper should have. With the help with this website http://jonahschrogin.blogspot.com/2007/02/newspaper-typography.html.

I have found out that most newspapers use the font Sans Serif as it is more pleasing to the eye and it is easier to read than most f0nts. I was planning on using the font Sylfaen but I decided to follow the conventions of a normal newspaper which is to use the font sans serif. I actually think that font looks more professional and can relate to both classes as the font sylfaen does look a bit more middle class.

Week 6

Wendesday 6th October

I have various pictures that will inspire me. There are pictures of the audience I am targeting. The people I am targeting are mostly middle aged women and the elderly. The reason I have chosen these people as my audience is because it is moslty women in my boruough that stay at home and as the picture of the post box suggests it will be posted through their letter box. I am also targeting mothers and working class people in the lewisham bourough. I also have a picture of a corner store for workers on their way to work to pick up for free. My newpspaer is targeted at all religons and ethincities. From my resrarch most newspapers main article are about issues that effect the local community such as crime, closures of important things such as pubs etc.

I have to use different types of multimedia so in this blog you will not only see pictures, but hopefully you will be able to see video and audio to make my blog have more platforms. I have the results from my questionnaire here which was very helpful. The audience that I asked gave me positive feedback about the idea that my newspaper has so far. Here are the results of my questionnaire:

I asked 24 people from different backgrounds aged from 21-60
