1. The ‘Drop Cap’ this is
clear and indicates the
start of the article
amongst the rest of the
writing on the page. It
can be used as either a
decorative element or a
way to guide the reader
to the right part in the
article.
Content: The article at the bottom of
the page is explaining a brief outline
of what is to come in the new and up
coming series of ‘DrWho’. It is
written in black ad placed on a white
background So that the text is
distinctive from the rest of the page.
Surrounded by images from the new
TV series.
Columns: The article is
laid out in columns to
break the text up and
make it look
professional and tidy
on the page. Also they
are used to improve
the readability of the
text.
Page Numbers are used
to help the reader find a
specific piece of
content. They will also
link back to the
contents page, where all
the pages are listed and
what is included on
them. This is an easy
method for the reader
so that they can locate
what they want to read
quickly.
Date: the date is used to indicate
when the newspaper was released. It
is convention to include it on the
front cover but not convention to
have it on each page. Also alongside
the date the paper has the name of
the newspaper ‘radio Times’, this is
brand identity, the reader can tell
what paper it is by seeing only a mall
amount of its ‘logo’.
Images: the images
around the page are
related to the article and
TV series ‘DrWho’. The
re images of behind the
scenes and show some of
the things going on to
create the show. They
also show things, which
are going to come up in
the TV programme such
as a possible location
they have filmed at and
props, which are
regularly used, and
people can tell what
programme it is before
they read the article.
Main Image: The main
image is of ‘Matt Smith’
who is the new doctor.
The sub-heading next
to him links and
suggests that he is the
‘New (Who!) Doctor’.
This is done effectively
as the title links with
the image.
Main title: ‘Behind The
Scenes’. This title is often
used in The Radio Times. It
stands out at the top of the
page and lets the reader
know that the article is
going to be about behind the
scenes and what the stars
get up to and how they
accomplish the final
programme.
The main image on the page is the entire cast on set. It shows the location
they are at, it gives clues to the reader of where some scenes will be shot. The
image contains the iconic item of the ‘Tardis’ as on the page the is no specific
title of ‘DrWho’, however as this is an iconic symbol of the programme people
reading it will know what it is from and therefore it does not need a title of
such.
The colours used on the page are
neutral and simple. Nothing is
dramatically bold but it is clear
and gets its point of advertising
the programme across.
