Shown below is Mikes and my rough draft. Mike continued with this after I started working on my article with Matt L. Matt and I also worked further on our article after working on feedback from nick, other students and also feedback from our client jenny grahame.
Here is a picture of the feedback slip which we received, and here are the notes for the feedback written out incase the image is not clear.
In terms of content, this is The Business - Loads of really useful info, which addresses the different exam qs in a very focused and helpful way. But because there's so much dense factual info, you need to think about your layout to make sure things stand out.
- Crossheads for different sections would be really useful - e.g. : The challenges to TV; Legal Issues; New contenders; the future? Preparing for the exam ect (but create your own sexier crossheads)
plus bullet points are often helpful to emphasise points -e.g. in your second paragraph, where there are tons of stats and your final 'Preparing for the exam' section.
Working on the Flatplan
I also worked further on a flat plan with Kirk, and after a while we realised with all the articles the size they were, we will have a big problem fitting them all into the article. After working out who would take a page and a half, 2 pages, or one page or even half a page, and adding everyone's articles in I realised we had forgotten about two articles which obviously we couldn't leave out. Therefore, we all need to make substantial cuts to the articles to fit them all in there, for example, Philippa's article needed to be cut down to one page, same with Alie's article and the same with Mine and Matt L's if we can manage it.
Hopefully, the groups should make these changes otherwise we cannot fit all the articles in the newspaper and some may need to be left out. I am sure after asking them on Friday most of them were willing to cut down. Me and kirk will also work further on the flat plan now with modifications on Monday.
