1. How did I find my mast head?

4. These two mastheads were my first
original designs. As my Local
newspaper is Called ‘The Wembley
Examiner’ I included the Wembley
Stadium Logo to show its relevance
and comparison. Through the icon I
attempted to keep the colour scheme
the same consisting of blues and
Whites. But the Fonts were simple
and did not stand out and looked very
boring so I continued experimenting.
5. Here shows my second and third design
for my masthead. I included serious
colours such as Black and red so local
appealers would take this newspaper
serious and may be intrigued to buy
this. Using the red bars helped out line
the Masthead but the colour scheme
did not blend. I still insisted on using
the Wembley Stadium logo to try and
emphasise ‘Wembley’. Although the
logo stood out it made the mast head
look unorganised and messy. This
shows that I tried experimenting with
different colours but I found that the
first colours I experimented with
worked well with the logo I have
chosen.
6. I have gone back to my original ideas
by keeping the colour scheme
similar and relative to the logo using
blues and whites. The top Masthead
shows I tried experimenting with
two different fonts ( Arial, Accord
Heavy) . This simply did not work
but shows I’ve tried experimenting
with different fonts and colours. The
bottom Masthead shows I kept both
words the same font to look more
realistic and serious. The Blue
background makes the white font
stand out and which then becomes
eye catching for the audience which
is what I intend to do also along
with a good lead story.
7. Here is my final outcome to my mast head for my local newspaper. This
evidently shows that I've gone back to my original idea by keeping the
colour scheme the same such as a mixture of blues to go with the logo and
white to stand out so the audience will be able to see and read the title of
the paper. I’ve used shadowing effects and outlines to make it look more
professional but yet I have kept the font simple and bold.
