Brief 2 Newspaper satement of intent

For this coursework i will be doing brief 2 and making a newspaper front cover being named channel island daily aiming at all ages interested in relevant story’s without a bais decision giving views from both sides i will be doing a story on gaming and if its good or bad

In terms of layout and design, I am going to follow the style model of our CSP – the i. This has a main image that takes up half the page alongside two ‘plugs’ or ‘ears’, that give insight to what stories are inside the paper, underneath a strapline for my paper. I will also include a masthead, barcode and other details like time, date, and price.

below my main image i will have the main body of text going into the story briefly talk about it with small story’s going down the left side with thumbnails as a design featured with a bold red masthead accompanied by the C.I.D logo i will create fake advertisement’s as well as logos and other small story’s to go on the front cover with main story

My front page will follow the classic look of a formal newspaper so will feature minimal graphology. I will use my knowledge of semiotics and audience theory and incorporate it into the design product in order to show I understand how different signs, codes and conventions are used to receive a specific response from the audience and grab attention. I intend to also use my knowledge of Chomsky’s, Livingston and Lunt’s, and Laswell’s theories and ideology
