For the A2 production we decided to produce a local newspaper and I will be working in a team of two people. We are producing two weekly editions of the newspaper and we will produce two front pages and two other pages from the middle of the newspaper.
We had various ideas for stories and pictures going into the summer including
Primarks opening in Cabbots circus
Swine flu hitting Cornwall
GCSE results
Suicide attempt closes m5
Bristol city football clubs new stadium
Katie Price book signing
But we felt these stories were too widespread and wanted more local stories that reflect the local feel of the newspaper. We looked at local newspapes and analysed the text.
We found that the majority of newspapers would have a ratio of 2 sad stories to 4 happy stories overall so we tried to include this style in our newspaper with a sad story then 2 more cheerful ones.
We thought up some more ideas for our newspaper.
Celebrity spot of the week
Swine flu hits Portishead
Local band get signed
A local event or festival
Local swimmer- one step closer to Olympics
Student wins media award
Postman mauled by Rottweiler
Turning off of traffic lights
Local boy in fatal accident
Kitchen fire in local womans house
We managed to get pictures of some events during the summer such as the sand sculpture event in weston super mare which we got enough coverage and pictures to include it in our production.
