Masthead

 
 
To create my newspaper pages, I will be using Adobe Illustrator. This is particularly useful because I can use the tabloid template to try and scale the features on my page appropriately. 
 
 


 
This is the design I am planning to use for my newspaper masthead. I made it red, not because it signifies any political leanings, but purely because it is bold enough to capture the attention of the audience. The font is more traditional because I am aiming my paper to have a more sophisticated look compared to the more rounded text often found on tabloids.
I have left some space available next to the main headline in case I want to insert a puff, but this will depend on any changes I may make to my masthead.
