The Big Issue Covers Cover No.1 Masthead – The Big Issue Serif font –I would say that the main text is in the font of  Adobe Fan Heiti Std B. Cross Head – The 'Plus' section offers an incite into what else is going to be inside the magazine other than the the main story on the front. The word 'plus' acts sort of like a sub heading, as The Big Issue does not tend to use sub headings very often.  Mode Of Address – The magazine talks to the audience in a relaxed fashion, yet the style of the speech is still formal. Sell Lines – 'A hand up not a hand out' Banners – Also the plus section is in a bright yellow as the editors want the public to buy the magazine for the main article, yet they also want them to want to read the other articles so they put them in an eye catching colour. House Style – The Big Issue tends to make their front pages eye catching through the use of large images and bold colours, which is different to a lot of ot...

 Editorial Comments Similarities Small masthead Column style- text based (no images) Authoritative, persuasive tone Subheading = outlines opinions Based on current affairs 2-3 different comment articles Differences The Daily Mail As the paper is right wing, its comment is going to be biased towards the right wing opinions. In this comment they are talking about Brexit, and how they believe that it is not Britain's fault that the exit from the EU is taking so long, as the French are preventing the operation from being carried out as quickly as possible. This is a stereotypical move of a right wing supporter, as many of them believe that nothing is ever Britain's fault, and they must pass the blame onto someone else, in this case France. It is also very opinionated and likes to make clear the fact that Britain is at no fault and is trying to brainwash the readers into believing the same thing. There are no official facts in this comment, a...

Title Sequence Pitch- Fallen Evaluation- The main focus of the series is the tree, so in the first scene the object in focus is the tree to show its significance. Out of focus in that shot is the house, to show how the house and the tree are connected, yet the tree takes the focus of the tree to shows its importance over the house and those who live in it. The leaves that are blowing in the wind represent the lives of people that the tree has taken. The camera then does a tracking shot of the leaves to reveal the roots of the tree. The roots are long to show the length of time that the tree has been there, and they are dripping blood to show the danger that the tree holds. The blood then acts as a transition to the next scene where you can see the blood collecting in a puddle and the leaves floating beside it. The puddle is then zoomed in on and the word 'Fallen' is formed by the leaves which have fallen from the tree. The camera then zooms in on the leaves thems...

News: An Evolving Media Product https://www.theguardian.com/uk The Guardian makes its target readership clear, as the information they provide is usually unbiased which may also make their readers want to subscribe to the Guardian online and pay for the news, as they trust the newspaper to provide trustworthy information, which others which are free may not. I believe the Guardian online is able to keep readers as well as readers of their print form, as they provide information that is well written, and also correct (usually) and most people might prefer having a physical newspaper because the age of the readers may mean that they find it hard to use the online editions. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/ushome/index.html Layout- The Daily Mail again uses categories to make finding the stories that their readers want a lot easier. This may entice readers to want to access the online version of the newspaper as there is more information available to them, a lo...
