The Guardian and The Daily Mail articles

Are they typical articles for each publication?
Both newspapers tend to publish articles on politics regularly, The Guardian more than the Daily Mail, yet it is still common in both publications. 
Who are the journalists? What can you find out about them?
Marina Hyde wrote the article for The Guardian and she writes three columns a week on current affairs, politics, celebrity and sport.
Jack Doyle wrote The Daily Mail article and he is the associate editor for politics.
How interactive are the articles? What hyperlinks feature in the copy?
The Guardian has a large picture at the top referencing the inter-textual joke associated with the title of the article, and also has a video of Theresa May making an address. There are hyperlinks to The Guardian's social media at the bottom of the article also.
The Daily Mail has a few different picture of political key figures as well as a video and also includes their social media links at the top.
What other stories are linked on the page? How do these link?
The Guardian has other stories relating to Brexit where as The Daily Mail has stories to do with celebrities and stories that are likely to be shared online.
Is there any clickbait at the bottom? Are there any adverts on the page? What for? Why?
The Guardian doesn't really include any clickbait yet has about 3 adverts for the article, whilst the Daily Mail has a lot of clickbait and at least 5 or 6 adverts per page.
Can the audience easily share the article? How many times has this happened?

 There is an option to share both articles with the social media links, and the Guardian does not state how many times, but The Daily Mail says it has been shared 83 times.
How many comments are on the page? What do the comments say? What can you infer about the audience?

 The Guardian has about 1000 comments and the Daily Mail has about 850 and they both feature varied political opinions on the events of Brexit.
How is this different from a printed news article? Explain as many advantages and disadvantages of publishing in both formats as you can.

 Online allows for updates to the information as well as videos and more advertising, but also the option for the news to be seen by more people, as less people want to have to buy a physical copy of a newspaper.

 However, the companies will make less money off the articles online, and people who worked for the physical printing process may lose their jobs. It will also result in the physical copies becoming even less popular.

Final draft of Posters

Image
Final draft I have made these posters for my final draft. The first one has my model standing on a tree trunk looking into the distance. I have edited it in a way that makes the picture brighter and less dark, but if I was making this poster again, I would make sure that when I re shoot this picture l, you are able to see the clothes such as the t shirt more clearly. I would do this as the clothes are supposed to be the centre of the poster, so I need to make them be more of the focus. I would also have it so that she is at a right angle as the picture looks slightly odd because she is tilted slightly. The logo is in a different place in both the pictures, so I need to frame them better if I retook them so that there is continuity. The second poster is of my model in an archway of trees. I like the perspective and how the path follows upwards, and I believe that if I have my model more to the left, the path would flow nicely in the picture. I again made the picture brighter

Deutschland 83 audience profiling

•Demographic- The audience for Deutschland 83 is from ABC1 demographic as the audience would require an extent of background knowledge on the cold war, so would have to be relatively educated. •Psychographic- audiences of Deutschland 83 would enjoy similar shows in the genre of Deutschland 83 (Thriller, History, War, Drama) due to the niche topic.
