The newspaper’s audience are people of all ages living in the region who are interested in national and international news stories as well as stories relating specifically to the local area.
In evaluation, I’m going to research current issues on climate change and how locally climate change in affecting Jersey, such as the high levels of lung cancer increasing due to the much larger volumes of granite in Jersey compared to the UK. I may take a photo of the sea wall or beach which can generally and easily relate to the main idea which is climate change. I might also be able to discuss ideas of theorist Noam Chomsky and how current reports of climate change may not be accurate and is creating an ideological world which support money making motives. The newspaper will help enable political discussion and civic involvement.
In terms of layout and design, I am going to follow the style model of our CSP (The i). This has a main image (half page) with two ‘plugs’ or ‘ears which are stories that are to be continued later into the paper, these are not to be as relevant as the main page but will maintain its contemporary and stylish look.
I want to create a newspaper front cover using Adobe InDesign that features local news for jersey that also relates to national and international – world – issues. I may also use photoshop to create certain detailed elements that will relate to the style of the newspaper cover.
