Now that we have almost finished our articles, we need to really be thinking about how we want the article to layout and what it should look like within the newspaper. Myself and Alie have drawn out a small outline to what we thought the simple style layout should be and we used James' article as a basis for the layout and our outcome is the first image that you see below. The second image shows a print out of a document that we produced, which also displays a layout for the articles. We took the layout that we had drawn out, used boxes and lines in Pages to show the layout and then added in the appropriate text in the fonts and sizes that we thought would fit best.
This task was very useful as it gave use a basis for what we wanted the style to look like and we gathered them with others in the class and were able to see what we all wanted. It also showed us that we need to be more creative with these layouts, as we are paying for colour in the newspaper, we need to show how that would work and make the layouts more colourful and interesting.
