Easter homework

                             
                                                         Easter homework







1.What two conventions have I used & Why?
Conventions are: Mix of content, Aspiration tone, Direct mode of address & model or celebrity on front cover. 
   direct address- Your party dress code. 
                          The girl on the front is looking straight at you. 


2.What are the effects of my Layout, Typography, Colour choice and Language Choice
Effect means what does it say to the audience. Essentially you need to talk about the connotations of all of these things.

key words in the passages are in a bold font to make the important parts of the writing stand out.

Layout - Is it symmetrical (ordered and sophisticated) or asymmetrical (chaotic and youthful). What Balance does it have? (refer to your past work on balance)

Typography: Is is serif or sans serif? Does it cover hand writing?

Language: Have you use exlamatives (exclamation marks), alliteration (multiple words with the same letter), imperatives (a command) or a pun (a funny play on words)?

waterloo road case study

                                                              
The people who made waterloo road designed the logo to look like this because if you look very close the writing is set out as tables and it has school students gathered around it. It does not look neatly set out so it gives you the picture that the students are not well behaved and do not fallow school rules.



this girl has a croydon girl look hair and is also wearing a lot of make up.
she is also dressed quite scruffy which would not give a very good impression
to people looking to send their child to this school.
