Magazines

Existing newspaper pages which cover the same topic which i am interested in creating..

This one has the main space dominated by a picture of a girl, with bold headlines to draw your attention and the actual pictures are in white circles to draw your attention and make you actually look at what they have to offer. Tabloid's style of writing is for 7 year olds, so this could be another reason for the lack of writing. 

This one has a big bold headline stating that 'Shop giant loses faith in Far East' this makes you want to actually read the article to see what they mean and its also dominates a large bit of the page, along with the picture of three girls dressed fashionably.

This one has bright colours to grab your attention and make you want what there is to offer, because they look so nice. Also, they use people that the dress looks really good on so that you think you'll look like that if you wore it. Also the main space is taken up by the pictures of the items. 

The difference between these two, (The Sun being a Tabloid and The Daily Telegraph being a broadsheet) is that The Daily Telegraph is generally great deal more serious than those newspapers that are tabloids. Most tabloids release gossip stories about Celebrities and Football games, whilst the broadsheet shows stories about the Government and things that are more serious. Another difference is that the Sun looks a lot tackier than The Daily telegraph and also uses a lot of different language. Also, again with thee types of stories, there is usually a half naked girl or something informal on the front cover than the broadsheet which would usually have very formal language and headlines about the war in Afganistan or the government.

What should be the lead story of the Goffs Glossy magazine?

In my group there was Hollie, Katie, Georgiana and myself. In our lessons it was decided that for our magazine Glossy Goffs we would all go out and interview certain teachers which were selected and then put on a list so we could go find and then interview them. The teachers that we interviewed were Mrs Keenan, Miss Austin, Miss Presney, Mrs Ilsley and even our head teacher! Ms Garner.

in this questionnaire we asked questions like;
'What subjects Do you teach?'
'What do you really think of the new school uniform?'
'What do you think the most successful change that has happeneed to the school this year?'
'Do you think any of the subjects taught are actually irrelevant?'
'Are you close to any of the other teachers and if so name them'
'What do you read?'


The teachers that we interviewed answers these questions with ease and honesty one teacher even said that if it had been her in our positions she would of definately rolled up the skirt a few times and she would of absolutely hated it. We also found out who the most popular teachers are, they were Mrs Fricker and Mrs Conolly, we found this out from the answers to the question 'Are you close to any of the other teachers and if soi name them'.

The majority of the teachers also commented on the change of Goffs Schools GCSE levels, as they have dramatically improved. they said that they felt quite proud and that they belivieved this would help us in life.
