Perugliding layout

This article is about paragliding in Peru. I used a picture of what a paraglider would see flying over Miraflores, which shows more than tells, and a smaller picture of someone landing. My biggest struggle with this assignment was the map. In the end, I chose to use a smaller map of Peru and point to where Miraflores was located. Also, I used a picture from the writer and spread it across the two pages two give it more length. Finally, I combined the country Peru and the activity of paragliding into one word to give a fun and dynamic title.

Photos for Online and Print

For Online



The original picture was a lot darker and larger. So, for the print one I sharpened it sharpened her black hair. For the online one, I cropped it and lightened the photo.

Homely Hotels layout

For the title, I wanted to give off the impression that it was like a motel or hotel sign. Because it was a two page spread, I decided to use the second page as the focal point of the story, which showed the girl jumping on the hotel bed to show how a hotel can be like a home. I used the black border around the picture to match with the border around the headline on the first page. I used smaller picture on the first page because there was a lot more information on it.

Photo happy layout

In an attempt to emphasize the meaning of the title, I used a yellow background. Also, I decided to use another photo of elderly hands to avoid repetition of the pictures of elderly faces. On the second page, I used one of the photos given to put a face to the article. Finally, I used a pull out quote to give further depth to the article.

Wanderer Cover design

For the cover, I wanted to keep it sleek and clean. In order to do this, I did not want the headlines to have a variety of color because I felt that it would be too busy. So, the only title I chose to color was Red Light Lima because I thought it would add depth to the name. Also, because many of the titles were long, I chose to use the number seven for the title "The 7th wonder of the world" and emphasize the 7 by making it larger than the rest of the title.
