• The actors will be wearing these t-shirts with different social media logos
on them, and some text below explaining the site.
• The person running away from social media will
wear this chequered shirt as they are popular
amongst youth and our target audience will be
able to relate.
8. location
• We chose a location with grass and greenery as it was neutral and
not distracting from the actors/concept.
9. Double page spreaD
• These photos were poor as there was too much awkward spacing and the
purpose of the people behind was not clear as they were out of focus.
• Doesn’t look like person is being chased, so the whole concept is lost.

27. New locatioN – trial
5
• After looking over the photos we realised the location wasn’t
working.
• The wires and poles on the fence were too distracting.
• The greenery in the background represented nature too much.
• So we decided to go with a plain brick wall and concrete floor.
28. props
• We decided to
make signs
saying ‘Pick Me’
for the actors to
hold in the
newspaper
advert

social media is
manipulative, to
the audience.
29. double page spread
Layout: Centre of the page
• We decided to try putting the person running away, in the centre and the chasers
behind for a more dynamic layout.

• We also made the wall a more pale colour to stop it dominating the image.
• Dark blue sub-title • Light blue sub-title
• Blue drop cap.
40. ediTing on phoToshop
• After looking over the newspaper advert images, we saw that the colours of the
background were too bold and distracted you from the image and took away
from the concept.
• To fix this problem we edited the images on ‘Photoshop’.
• We altered the colour of the brick wall.
• We lightened
the bottom of
the image.

Orange Channel 4 logo:
• As we decided to go with an orange box for the information on the group photo
and the titles on the double page spread, we tried out the same colour logo.

White Channel 4 logo:
• We then also tested out a white logo, however this would have to go with a
white box for the text as channel 4 always match them.

White Channel 4 logo:
• Finally we tried out a black logo.
• We decided to go with black as our text box is orange, and black worked
best of all the colours.
• White and orange was too distracting from the image.
