This is the address to my website

This is a poster i created advertising my local newspaper. It gives all the key information such; where the peper can be bought, that it is available Monday to Saturday, the price and the adress of my website. The main focus of the poster is a landscape picture of the whole of the city of Portsmouth. This establishing shot works with masthead of the newspaper to instantly show people what the paper is all about and where it focuses on. It also features a phrase that is used a lot on the website, 'Working together for our community', this suggests that the paper is a very much a part of the community and brings together the paper and the reader.

This is the completed copy of my local newspaper.

The stories have now been written and are varied as one is as much a national as a local issue and the other atory only really has interest and appeal to people who live in the local area. This varies the newspaper and adds interest. The strip at the top has also been sompleted informing the reader about what else features in the issue; one of them being a chance for the reader to get involved with the paper and local community.

I now have the final layout for my front page, I have completed the second smaller story and seperated the two stories with a thin blue line and put them in seperate boxes. I have also added small finishing touches such as; who the picture was taken by in the corner of the photos, this makes the finished product seem much more proffesional.

I have now wrote the main story on the front page and one of the smaller stories. I have created a band on the main image that informs the reader on which page the story is continued and also written the same at the end of the smaller stoy.

I have also completed the left hand vertical strip on the front cover, i did this by inserting descriptions of the Tide Times and the Sailing Forecast, this was reasonably easy to do as it is just text but by using different fonts, styles, shapes and sizes still managed to make it look interesting. This is also very often seen in local newspapers.

I have inserted another image into the text of the main story on this page as this is regularly done in the stories of many editions of local newspapers.
