Presentation of first draft
This is an image of the first draft:
- Choice of image - the image is a sixth form student who has recently made a discovery for the archeology group hence the skull in the image. A bright background stands out and draws in readers.
- Font- The masthead is really eye catching as its bold and the white text really stands out against the re background. The star forming part of the exclamation mark adds character to the masthead. All font is white so it is clear and easily read over images.
- Title- 'Get 2 know!' this appeals to the target audience of 11-18 year olds as it uses abbreviations and is quick and catchy to pronounce. Also it can easily moved to other products.
