Newspaper Inside Page Layouts




Features seen on the inside covers:
The Evening Post:

  • Caption - who's in the picture, age and where it is shot - who, what, where, why etc. for example: Sam Rogers 6 and tom Anderson 13, winners of the first golden Morphs award @ Bristol Explore presented by Richard Williams (Who Framed Roger Rabbit) and Donna Speed (Competition winner)
  • column of stoies on the left hand side approximately three stories.
  • One image, more focus on stories
  • six stories on one page.
  • Evening post website, top left
  • Date top right
  • who took the picture is also featured and where you can order the picture.

I like the layout of the stories especially the left hand column. Perhaps I would add another picture and an advert as I believe there are too many stories all on one page.

The Mercury:

  • Captions under/ alongside pictures
  • top left corner - name of newspaper and then date
  • top right cormer - website address
  • One large advert bottom left of the page
  • Two images
  • Community stories in a blue rimmed box
  • Maximum two to three columns for each story
  • approximately three stories per page

Again, I like the layout and there is the right amount of pictures : text

The Times:

  • website address -top left hand corner
  • date - middle top of page
  • page number - top right hand corner
  • seven adverts on one page near bottom and up the sides but I think that it may vary between pages
  • three images near top of page
  • approximately three stories per page
  • Red line separting the two headlines

I like the layout at the top of the page as it is more conventional but I do feel that it has too many adverts which ultimately make it feel cluttered.
