2nd Page

For the second page of the website, i decided to keep it relatively simple, this is because if i over complicated it, it may seem hard to read and therefore unappealing.
I began by creating a banner to go at the top of the page, i made it quite small so that there was enough room for content below it. In the banner i included the title of the newspaper, the date and the page number.



















I decided to have three features on the page. I did not want to just have a white background for each article so i made each of them differ; one with a plain white background, one with a border around it and one with a grey background.



















I then added the pictures and headlines to the spaces. The first picture that i added was one that i took of at the Ocean Club in Marbella, and the second was of a friends band performing at the Jersey Live festival. I chose to use a white font for the headline on the grey background because it stood out more than a black font, making it easier to read.



















I then added the text, keeping it relatively small so that it did not look unprofessional, however i made sure that the writing was legible. For the writing on the grey background, i used a black font with a white stroke around it, this was so it differed from the headline and making it more interesting.



















Now my second page was finished, i was happy with it as it stuck with the same style as the front page, whilst being a lot simpler and easy to read. I chose not to put too many features as it may have seemed clogged up and messy.
